I work with infants and the teething tablets do work. I never used them with my own children but I use them now at work and the babies settle down quickly. I also know that orajel makes a night time formula - try that too. Tylenol and Advil can be alternated every 3 hours. So if you give him Tylenol before bed and he wakes 3 hours later you can give him Advil and so on. That is better than waiting the 4 to 6 hours between doses. Make sure he eats good before going to bed - children sleep better on a full stomach. Have patience and understanding because it will all go away once the teeth come through. Giving him something hard and cool to chew on during the day might help too. Good luck. There are a lot of good answers here. I work with infants and the teething tablets do work.
