In the new study only 2.1% of pregnant women took prescription #acetaminophen. In the 2016 study 50% of Danish women reported taking it. This extreme exposure misclassification would bias toward seeing no association, as you do in the new study.

#Tylenol is also given to 95% of infants & toddlers. With regression thought to be the rule rather than the exception, the lack of research into the potential neurodevelopmental effects of infant use is a complete travesty. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30885812/ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35175416/

But there is only one medication linked to autism that is taken by 65% of U.S. pregnant women….#Tylenol pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40804730/

In 2008, Schultz suggested that Tylenol was associated with autism regression when administered with the MMR. Yet for some reason, the medical establishment is focusing only on pregnancy exposures and declaring no link whatsoever between Tylenol and autism while completely neglecting infant exposures, even though ~95% of babies are exposed to acetaminophen products in their first year of life.

@pash22 @TheLancet @HHSGov @EpiRen When will infant exposures be addressed?

Remember you published on paracetamol & neurodevelopment (autism) because there is evidence to suggest a link. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34556849/ Recent sibling studies which do not support do have limitations (that you smart folks should recognize). Shame on you for playing politics.

More than two-thirds of the public believe at least one false or unproven health claim — such as the idea that taking paracetamol during pregnancy causes autism go.nature.com/4sMgVqg

Yes! We also need research to figure out if giving #Tylenol to infants increases autism & ADHD risk. No studies have explored the cumulative effect of #acetaminophen given both prenatally & in infancy. A new autism model suggests this might be critical pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41902612/

I really don't care who TF is in charge, I would like a real agreed upon answer to this asap...and even at the expense of some stocks going down.

We MUST find the causes and treatments for regressive autism. We MUST let the diagnosis of regressive autism stand alone. "About a third of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder experience loss of skills, which is also known as autistic regression." n=33,014 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

BOOM: Secretary Kennedy just demolished big pharma…again. Every news station has reported on a brand new Danish study supposedly showing that Tylenol does not cause autism. RFK Jr: “The study is a garbage study. It should be retracted. The study took a million, the medical records, of a million danish women and it compared women who got Tylenol during pregnancy to people who did not. The problem is, the way it determined whether they got Tylenol during pregnancy was by prescriptions. So only 2% of the people in the study got Tylenol during pregnancy - according to the end point.” “Tylenol is available over the counter. Many of you have taken Tylenol, but very few of you have ever gotten a prescription. 50% of the people in Denmark, we know from other studies, actually took Tylenol during pregnancy. So the study was comparing women who took Tylenol during pregnancy to women who took Tylenol during pregnancy. It was a garbage in, garbage out study. The industry has the capacity to generate these studies all the time and it’s fraudulent.”

Yes. All of the above. Tylenol would never be approved if introduced as a new drug today. It is the without a doubt the most dangerous OTC medicine. The toxic effects on the liver are well-documented…but once the Tylenol-autism link is confirmed (and it is a question of when, not if) it will be the end of the line for the last of the aniline analgesics. Good riddance, I say.

Parents: did you know that studies show ibuprofen (Motrin) is BETTER than acetaminophen (Tylenol) for both fever reduction and pain reduction? So if your child is older than 6mo, consider Motrin over Tylenol. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Prenatal use of acetaminophen associated with an increased risk of ASD accompanied by hyperkinetic symptoms (HR = 1.51 95% CI 1.19-1.92), but not with other ASD cases (HR = 1.06 95% CI 0.92-1.24). Longer duration of use increased the risk of ASD w/ hyperkinetic symptoms ~twofold

A new randomized, double-blind trial found that taking omega-3s daily for 3 months significantly improved stress, anxiety, depression, sleep quality, and everyday memory in adults with severe psychological distress. A simple daily intervention (500mg EPA and 250mg DHA) improved nearly every psychological measure the researchers tested.
