Strange, because the advice for paracetamol use in pregnant women in Australia is to seek a doctors advice, and only use the smallest dose for the shortest amount of time. The makers of paracetamol drugs say to seek doctors advice if you’re pregnant. The makers of Tylenol specifically say they advise pregnant women not to take Tylenol/paracetamol.

If it was just overall “safe” to take then there would be no need for any of these warnings or advice.

It’s insane watching everyone now go out of their way to defend “big pharma” because Trump pointed out studies done by some of the biggest, most liberal, most respected scientific institutes in the world who have raised their concerns about paracetamol and autism/adhd after doing studies.

What happened to “trust the science”?
