Thank Obama's FDA For Your Crying Baby; No More Hyland's Teething Tablets
-
What did we do while our daughter was teething and while our twin boys were and are teething? Up until recently we would give them Hyland’s teething tablets, and they worked wonders.
We are down to our last bottle thanks to President Obama’s FDA:Hyland’s Teething Tablets may pose a risk to children
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today is warning consumers that Hyland’s Teething Tablets may pose a risk to children. The FDA recommends that consumers not use this product and dispose of any in their possession. The manufacturer is issuing a recall of this product.
Hyland’s Teething Tablets are manufactured to contain a small amount of belladonna, a substance that can cause serious harm at larger doses. For such a product, it is important that the amount of belladonna be carefully controlled. FDA laboratory analysis, however, has found that Hyland’s Teething Tablets contain inconsistent amounts of belladonna. In addition, the FDA has received reports of serious adverse events in children taking this product that are consistent with belladonna toxicity. The FDA has also received reports of children who consumed more tablets than recommended, because the containers do not have child resistant caps.
The FDA advises consumers to consult their health care professional if their child experiences symptoms such as seizures, difficulty breathing, lethargy, excessive sleepiness, muscle weakness, skin flushing, constipation, difficulty urinating, or agitation after using Hyland’s Teething Tablets.
Another instance of a bureaucracy looking for a nonexistent problem to fix.

Just wait 'til the ball gets rolling, even daily vitamins and supplements will be regulated. This is good news though, as hundreds of thousands of jobs will be destroyed at the same time as the industry crashes. I see a need for another jobs program just around the corner.

Yep, regulating ourselves to death.
Wow, bird-dog a product that could harm infants due to inconsistent manufacturing processes? What an asshole.
