Description
What Are Nelsons Teetha Granules?
Nelsons Teetha Teething Granules are a homeopathic medicine traditionally used to help relieve the pain and discomfort associated with teething in babies.
These easy-to-administer granules dissolve gently in your baby’s mouth, helping to soothe sore gums, reduce dribbling, and ease irritability – all common signs of teething.
Each sachet contains Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomile), a natural active ingredient known for its calming, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relieving properties.

How Nelsons Teetha Granules Work
The active ingredient, Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomilla) 6c, is traditionally used in homeopathy to relieve teething pain, calm inflammation, and ease irritability.
It works naturally with your baby’s body to provide gentle, safe relief – without artificial colours, sugar, or preservatives.

For babies aged 3-6 months:
