@cbsmornings: While speaking at Charlie Kirk’s memorial service on Sunday, President Trump said an announcement was coming related to autism. The Washington Post reports the administration is expected to tie pregnant women’s use of acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, to a risk of autism. Tylenol’s owner refutes the claim. CBS News medical contributor Dr. Celine Gounder explains.

Took Tylenol with my first, he had autism. Felt so guilty, I didn’t take anything with my second. She has autism.

bexier97 :

I heard that 100% of autistic children had mothers who drank water.

Anesthesia guy :

I took Tylenol throughout my wife’s pregnancy and now I’m autistic

Jessica Wetz #6 :

They don’t want pregnant women having access to pain meds. Next they’ll demonize the epidural.

Heather at The Family Who :

I have two autistic kids that I took absolutely no Tylenol during their pregnancies. Turns out my husband being autistic will do that.

Tami :

I took Tylenol during all 3 of my pregnancies and none of my children have autism. And yes, they are also fully vaccinated.

Gaby Lovo :

As an ABA therapist (works with autistic kids) I am TRUELY concerned for all these kids that have autism because 2 years ago I only had 1 client for 3 hours …4 days a week and I didn’t have any client to work with through summer break..I was even a district manager because there wasn’t as much clients for me as a therapist …MY SCHEDULE IS NOW FULL ALOT OF PARENTS request even SATURDAY AND SUNDAY I WORK!!! This all happened in the matter of 2 years …I was even laid off a bit because there wasn’t any clients I had to DRIVE 30-40 min from my house to see a client we NOW HAVE A CLINIC and MAJORITY of kids come to the clinic ..same company now just 3 minutes from my home.. crazy but we had 3 clinic open in less than 4 months …matter of fact we need more therapist THIS IS TRULEY CONCERNING!!! Especially in US …it’s such a high number I don’t think people understand …people in the field and mothers with autistic kids!

Kandra Czarnowski :

To anyone believing this Tylenol thing leads to Autism is sadly mistaken. Autism was first discovered in 1911. Tylenol didn’t start production until 1955.

SashiGirl :

Blaming the mothers for their children's autism is about the last thing that needs to be done.

Gramsci’s #1 Fan :

Idk man I’m autistic and I prefer ibuprofen but I’ll keep y’all updated

The Trans Queen of Radio Esme :

Kassandra 🦋 :

I refused to take any medication during pregnancy and my youngest son still became autistic. So???

Jane Gray :

The US is bonkers

JerricaLee8806 :

Tylenol is all we can take when we are pregnant. How can you say Tylenol causes anything when every pregnant woman takes it?

Elder Ekon :

Only in 2025 am I rooting for a big pharma lawsuit

Jessica 💜 :

Tylenol is the only pain medicine you can take while pregnant. by their logic, all of us and kids would be autistic
