Tylenol Autism Link Revisited in Court

A federal appeals court is reconsidering over five hundred lawsuits alleging Tylenol use during pregnancy caused autism or ADHD in children. Initially dismissed due to unreliable scientific evidence, the court now questions the district judges decision, suggesting some expert testimony might have been admissible. The topic gained attention when the Trump administration linked Tylenol to autism, contradicting medical evidence. Recent studies, including one funded by the NIH, found no increased risk of autism or ADHD from Tylenol use during pregnancy. The Attorney General of Texas recently sued Johnson & Johnson and Kenvue for deceptive marketing, with Kenvue defending Tylenols safety. DNN | The Daily News Now!
