Paracetamol and Pregnancy - Lies From Trump
Sep 23^rd, 2025 at 11:40am

More conspiracy theories from Trump, RFK Jr. and "Dr" Oz.

Trump links autism to acetaminophen use during pregnancy, despite decades of evidence it’s safe

President Donald Trump announced Monday that the US Food and Drug Administration will notify doctors that the use of Tylenol during pregnancy can be associated with a “very increased risk of autism,” despite decades of evidence that it is safe.

“They are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary,” such as to treat fever, “if you can’t tough it out,” Trump said.

Experts say there are multiple causes of autism, and the science showing a connection between autism and Tylenol is not settled.

Utter insanity.

Yes, many lives will be put at risk and many women will suffer unnecessarily.

He is extremely dangerous.

"Trump did not keep his remarks to Tylenol during pregnancy. He advocated for breaking up childhood vaccinations and even pushing back the hepatitis B shot for newborns — a public health strategy that brought the infection in children to the brink of elimination — to age 12."

That ban of abortions even extends to where the woman’s waters break before the fetus has developed lungs. It is not viable but in no-abortion states the woman has to carry the dead fetus until sepsis is so bad it puts the woman’s life at risk.

I have read some real horror stories since the abortion ban in too many US states.

Australia’s peak body for obstetricians and gynaecologists fears pregnant women will not take paracetamol when they need it and suffer harm from unmanaged fever after the Trump administration made unfounded claims linking it to autism.

They encouraged women to talk to their doctor rather than rely on the White House announcement on Tuesday, which they described as “not a no-harm scenario”.

The comments came as Australia’s medicines regulator, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), re-confirmed that the drug is safe for use in pregnancy.

On Tuesday morning the US president, Donald Trump, claimed that pregnant women should limit their use of paracetamol, usually branded as Tylenol in the US, which he said heightens the risk of autism when it used by pregnant women – even though it is widely considered a safe option to treat pain and fever during pregnancy.

In some states it’s a blanket ban - even minors who aren’t even teenagers yet are barred from getting an abortion if they are raped. It is draconian.

True, Greggery, a lot of people are saying that. I knew this pill addict once, and she popped out a complete retard.

Could have been the father, I suppose. He was a Muslim. But do you know?

There is a cure. Hydroxychloraquine has been proven to cure autism in a significant percent of studies. Dr Stella Immanuel of the Praying Doctors was saying this only recently.

Not only has she treated retardation, she's helped parents cure their children's hommersexuality and other demonic mental disorders.

RFK's considering Dr Stella to head the FDA.

The big fella likes the idea. She may help with the black vote in 2026.

Also, she wears a stethoscope. He likes that.

I thought he was saying tylenol - the brand - not acetaminophen? Changed it did they?
