Note: As of 2016, Hyland's has stopped distributing their teething products in the United States. In October 2010, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified consumers that Hyland's Teething Tablets, a homeopathic product, intended to provide temporary relief of teething symptoms in children, was being recalled after that agency received reports of serious adverse events in children. The FDA stated the tablets contained inconsistent amounts of belladonna that could pose a serious risk of harm to children (potentially including seizures) and warned consumers to stop using and discard the product: Nine months later, in July 2011, Hyland's announced the imminent return to market of their teething tablets product, stating they had modified the manufacturing process to ensure uniformity in dosage and had added child-resistant caps to the packaging: Following an FDA warning issued in September 2016 stating that homeopathic teething tablets and gels may pose a risk to infants and children, Hyland's announced they would discontinue manufacture of the product (although some may remain on store shelves or available for purchase online): A February 2017 report suggested that hundreds of cases in which children had been taken ill (or even died) after the use of Hyland's homeopathic teething products had been relayed to the FDA over the years:
