The Trump administration has received significant criticism regarding claims that acetaminophen (Tylenol) can cause autism during pregnancy. Scientists and obstetric groups have expressed concern that these assertions are unsupported by robust research. The administration’s statement suggests a causal link between acetaminophen intake and developmental delays in infants. Medical organizations have urged caution and further investigation into the claims, highlighting the need for comprehensive data to determine the true impact of acetaminophen use during pregnancy. No conclusive evidence linking acetaminophen to autism has emerged, but the debate continues.
