U.S. recalls Hyland's two teething products nationwide

At the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Hyland's has recalled two types of its teething products, which previously were linked to the deaths of 10 children.

Standard Homeopathic Company, the Los Angeles-based maker of Hyland's homeopathic teething products, on Thursday announced to removed Hyland's Baby Teething Tablets and Hyland's Baby Nighttime Teething Tablets from store shelves nationwide.

"As part of the recall, consumers should discard any teething products they may have," the company said in a statement, emphasizing it discontinued the manufacture and sale of these products since October 2016.

In January, the FDA urged parents not to use Hyland's homeopathic teething products after finding that the products contain varying amounts of belladonna, a toxic substance, commonly known as deadly nightshade, that could be harmful to children.

According to local KTLA TV Station, 10 deaths and other adverse events, such as seizures and vomiting, previously were reported to the FDA and the agency investigated those reports for about one year before concluding that the products had mislabeled the amounts of belladonna alkaloids they contained.

It was not the first time that Hyland's teething tablets being recalled. In 2010, Standard Homeopathic voluntarily recalled the tablets to address concerns with the products' manufacturing process and refine its production, packaging and testing protocols.

Hyland's homeopathic teething tablets date back to 1945 and had been used by millions of children, according to the company's website. Endi
