The FDA cautions that many well-meaning parents and caregivers may use potentially dangerous products in an attempt to relieve their child’s suffering.
Additionally, “Homeopathic tablets and other products, as well as prescription or over-the-counter medications that.
Contain benzocaine or lidocaine, may seem like good options for soothing children’s gums.” On its website, the US Food and Drug Administration advises that.
These items may be harmful to children and cause severe harm, including death. Smith and Talbert are each charged with first- and second-degree murder,
Conspiracy, and child negligence resulting in death, according to WBOY. They are being detained without bail at Central Regional Jail.
