Robert F. Kennedy Jr issued a warning to the American public that there could also be a hyperlink between Tylenol (acetaminophen) consumption throughout being pregnant and autism.

The general public deserves to know of any potential unwanted side effects. Tylenol was beforehand thought-about secure to take throughout being pregnant in small doses, and which will nonetheless be the case for a lot of ladies, however it’s the FDA’s obligation to warn shoppers of any potential unwanted side effects. New tips will urge suppliers to counsel the “lowest efficient dose.” But, there’s absolute outrage surrounding questioning the science and the left is all of the sudden lobbying for Huge Pharma without spending a dime.

Well being has change into political. Nobody is banning Tylenol or forcing ladies to expertise pointless ache throughout being pregnant. The US well being division is lastly performing as an advocate for shoppers and forcing transparency from pharmaceutical corporations. If that offends you, you may additionally wish to seek the advice of a physician.
