I used to give them anytime, but it would make sense not to give them immediately before milk.

I always used to give teething salts as a last resort, so if she woke crying in the night. I always felt the worked a lot better that way for us. If I tried giving them regularly they didn’t seem to be as effective somehow

Something like Parsons? Are they not just a dose of sugar (lactose powder)? I don't think it will matter when they are given. Teething is a total bummer though, you have my sympathies.

I used the Nelson ones, which had chamomile in to soothe.
