SO HOW DO I TAKE THESE?
Given that this is such a physical based issue, 3-4 pellets of a very low potency like 6c (see post: Homeopathic Potencies Explained) daily would likely be the greatest benefit. For babies it can be melted in water, and given as just a drop or two at a time. If there is zero improvement after a week or two, consider a different remedy or even working with me.
