Hylands Teething Tablets - How Long to Give?
I suspect my son wakes up at night because of his tooth. One of his lower tooth came out 2 weeks ago and starting last week, he has been crying every hour at night. I tried giving the teething tablet once and he was able to sleep 5 hours straight. How long should I give these tablets? Until his tooth shows up?

Yes you can use them until his tooth shows up. I used them consistently with my son, he got one tooth after then next it seemed like. When i knew he was teething i would use the teething tablets. I sometimes would also use Tylenol at night so that he would sleep better and not be wakened by his tooth pain. The teething tablets are really safe.
Good Luck!

you can give them as needed they are all natural and safe. they didnt work on my daughter (i was giving her 2 at a time and tylenol every 4 hours) so i used the gentle naturals teething drops (which you use every 2 hours) and absotlutely love them! good luck with your son!

Hi
I'd caution the use of these pills over a long time, since it contains Atropa Belladonna.
I'm not an MD, but after reading about the flower I stopped using them for my daughter.
See website for further info:

Just my 2 cents....

As long as his teeth are coming in...homeopathics do no have side effects. They will either work or do nothing at all. :)
