A year after President Donald Trump told pregnant women "Don't take Tylenol", a major review has found that the available evidence does not support a robust causal link between the painkiller and autism or ADHD in children. The analysis drew on data from more than 3 million participants.
The umbrella review, published this week in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, combined the results of seven meta-analyses. It concluded that paracetamol, the drug sold as Tylenol in the US, 'remains an appropriate first-line treatment during pregnancy when clinically indicated.'
