Scientists Debunk Tylenol-Autism Link Again Amid Trump’s False Claims
Contrary to claims made by public figures, a significant study of over 700,000 mother-child pairs in Hong Kong has found no association between acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy and autism. This research directly refutes allegations that the common pain reliever causes autism, information that had previously led to a decrease in its use among pregnant individuals. Medical organizations have consistently stated that acetaminophen is a safe option for pain and fever relief during pregnancy, and that untreated fever itself carries risks for both mother and child.
