As a pediatrician, I understand the concerns that come with your baby’s teething phase. While SBL 31 Teething Trouble Tablets are marketed as a homeopathic remedy for teething discomfort, it’s important to note that the efficacy and safety of homeopathic medicines are not supported by strong scientific evidence. Generally, teething itself does not require medication unless there is significant discomfort or symptoms interfering with feeding or sleep.
Next Steps
Non-medicinal comfort: Offer a clean, cold teething ring or cold wet washcloth for the baby to chew.
Gum massage: Gently rub your baby's gums with a clean finger.
Nutrition: Make sure your baby stays well hydrated. Stick to age-appropriate foods and offer cold purees for soothing.
Avoid: Over-the-counter topical gels, especially those with benzocaine or lidocaine, as they can be harmful to infants.
Monitor: Always supervise the baby when giving any remedy or teething aid to prevent choking.
My Professional Advice
I personally recommend prioritizing non-medicinal comfort measures and reserving medication (including homeopathic) only if clearly needed and after thorough discussion with your physician. Teething should not cause high fever or severe symptoms—if these appear, seek medical attention.
If you have ongoing concerns or the baby’s symptoms worsen, please schedule a consultation so i can provide tailored care.
