I saw these at the health food store the other day. How would they work??

Actually, homeopathy works on the principle of similars. Prepackaged stuff like this is probably a “shotgunning” of many remedies that are associated with night terrors- and probably doesn’t work too well because “monsters” aren’t specific enough to choose a remedy for a specific child’s fear.
I could pull hundreds of studies for you with positive efficacy rates. It’s an accepted method of treatment, especially in India, Germany, and Switzerland.
The first medical colleges in America taught homeopathy, and the only statue of a physician in DC is of Samuel Hahnemann- a homeopath. Homeopathy was a core class in traditional medical schools until about 1920, at which point naturopathy and allopathy went different ways philosophically.
Publication bias, pharmaceutical dollars and uneducated indoctrination have been seriously detrimental in this modality, which is cheap, easy to make or obtain, and requires a well trained practitioner, rather than mass expensive treatment that can be learned by rote, by disease.
I highly recommend doing actual research into the modality before writing it off- and maybe looking at the hospitals which use homeopathy nearly exclusively, rather than just the JAMA perspective, which is heavily biased against homeopathy.
