Understanding President Trump's autism announcement
The Trump administration has announced that the FDA will notify doctors about a potential link between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and an increased risk of autism, urging women to only take it if "medically necessary." Despite this, Tylenol's manufacturers maintain there is no proven link, advising consultation with healthcare professionals during pregnancy. Dr. Sarah Mohiuddin from the University of Michigan emphasized the need for continued research into autism causes, clarifying whether rising autism rates are due to actual increases or better diagnosis, and warned against misinformation impacting parents seeking answers.
