Yes: it is safe, but may not be the most effective remedy. Cold applied to the area, such as chilled teething rings and acetaminophen orally may be more helpful.

It is recommended: There are plenty of tricks (frozen wash cloth, cold spoon,rubber nubby, gel-filled teether, orajel ) to help your baby. If no amount of Tylenol (acetaminophen) and frozen teethers are helping your baby talk to your pediatrician about prescription medication. Good luck.
