2.0 out of 5 stars Keep away from this "natural" scam, March 8, 2011

We have ordered this teething gel for our 6 month old baby. Amazon.com and Hylands.com websites claim that product is

"100% Natural, contains Chamomile, free of artificial flavors and parabens, Homeopathic".

I'm surprised that there were no comments from the users of this gel on the real content of the tube. If anyone cared enough to examine packaging, it claims very different things. The tube has all the contents as advertised on the web AND some more intriguing "natural" artifacts:

* Sorbic Acid, also known as E200. Not a big evil, yet it would be good to be informed before ordering the product.

* Potassium Sorbate, also known as E202. Use of this preservative could lead to allergic reactions, nausea, diarrhea and nutrient loss in food.

* Sodium Benzoate, commonly known as E211. It is known to damage cells leading to cirrhosis and Parkinson's disease and other diseases. Sodium benzoate may increase hyperactivity in affected children, asthmatics sometimes react badly. Even CocaCola is not using this venom.

The teething gel works (hence 2 stars not 1), yet most simple gels that are not "chemical" and are available at a half price work much faster. Hylands takes 15 minutes to take effect. Side effects - largely dialated pupils of the baby.

My recommendation is to stay away from a company that neglects its customers by hiding out one third of the ingredients in a "natural" product thus trying to play fashion game and attracting customers with delusory label. Big shame on you, Hylands!

2.0 out of 5 stars No.. not working for my baby, September 16, 2010

I rubbed it on her gum when she seems like having gum discomfort and she's still screaming. The only good thing is that she doesn't react badly like when I rub Orajel on her. The tablets work better I think.. While she's screaming, I drop few tablets in her mouth then she instantly stop screaming (because she got distracted by the texture and taste). Then I quickly give her a bottle and she sleeps well after that. I notice she sleeps better when I give her the tablets. I think the gel works the same as the tablets (to calm) but I don't think it soothes her gum. Another thing is, I notice both gel and tablets have same ingredient in it.

we were using the teething tablets until the recall and switched over to the Hyland's teething gel and it works wonderfully. My baby hates the Baby oragel and will only use this product! We recommended it to another Mom to and her baby likes it as well.
