Homeopathic Teething Remedies

Instead of reaching for infant pain relievers consider a healthier alternative to easing your baby’s teething pain. Some homeopathic teething remedies can make a big difference for your kids. Some babies respond well to Hyland’s Teething Tabs. However, if the child has a runny nose and is clinging or wanting to be held constantly, the best homeopathic remedy is 30C Pulsatilla by Boiron. If the baby seems irritable, achy, and feverish and has other flu symptoms, then 30C Gelsemium by Boiron is the remedy you want. Have your child take four tablets every 15 minutes until symptoms subside and again when they reappear. Continue to give the remedy until the symptoms cease to reappear. Another remedy that will help with flu symptoms for children and adults is Oscillococcinum, also by Boiron.

Because children secrete more enzymes to help cut the teeth, gas and bloating can sometimes follow teething. To alleviate these symptoms try mint tea as well as A to B Calm. For a natural sleep aid, give you child chamomile tea. It will help the child sleep and be more restful.
