Adverse events have been reported but the FDA has said that a conclusive link to Teething Tablets has not been determined.

In addition to the product recall, Standard Homeopathic Company is refining its production, packaging and testing protocols. Throughout the process, Standard Homeopathic Company will continue to closely monitor and evaluate the situation and consult with FDA.
