Hyland’s Affirms Safety of Its Products; Still Awaiting Data Behind FDA Warning
October, 12, 2016
We have seen recent reports related to issues linked to use of homeopathic teething tablets and gels. Hyland’s has not been made aware of any data that supports the claims in these reports. Our understanding is that the Food and Drug Administration’s investigation of these products is still ongoing. The fact is that we have not been made aware of any medical or statistical evidence to support a causal link between homeopathic teething tablets and adverse outcomes at this point. We continue to request any available information and statistics from the FDA.
Over the course of the last six years, Hyland’s has developed and now employs state-of-the-art safety and testing procedures to ensure all its baby products are safe for our youngest users. Data from that program continues to indicate our products are safe. We look forward to working in partnership with the FDA to continue providing safe and effective medicines to families around the world. We regret that such unsubstantiated information is being shared and creating concerns among consumers.
