Experts Refute Trump’s Warning on Paracetamol During PregnancyU.S. President Donald Trump warned that taking Tylenol, whose active ingredient is paracetamol, during pregnancy could increase the risk of autism in children. Many medical experts, as reported by AFP and Bloomberg, continue to regard paracetamol as one of the safest pain-relief options during pregnancy. The manufacturer of Tylenol also rejected the claims, stating:“Independent, reliable scientific evidence clearly shows that taking acetaminophen does not cause autism. Recent Research and Medical AdviceRecent studies have explored potential correlations between frequent or high-dose paracetamol use during pregnancy and neurodevelopmental outcomes, including autism spectrum disorder. Medical authorities recommend caution: pregnant women should use paracetamol at the lowest effective dose for the shortest necessary time and always consult their healthcare provider.
