Washington Post says announcement imminent despite guidelines showing drug – known as paracetamol elsewhere - is safe for pregnant women to take
Donald Trump’s administration is on Monday expected to tie pregnant women’s use of the popular medicine Tylenol – known as paracetamol elsewhere in the world – to a risk of autism, contrary to medical guidelines, the Washington Post has reported.
Trump officials are also expected to announce an effort to explore how the drug leucovorin could purportedly and potentially treat autism, according to the Post report published Sunday, which cited four sources with knowledge of the plans who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the announcement had not been made.
Medical guidelines say it is safe for pregnant women to take Tylenol, the over-the-counter pain medication whose active ingredient is known as acetaminophen in the US and paracetamol elsewhere in the world.
Really? Sure is weird then how the famously autistic Temple Grandin was alive & 8 years old when Tylenol came on the market.
Also, millions of other autistic people.
So they can re-authorize all the vaccines now, right?
“No, not like that!”
Choo-choo! Lawsuit incoming!
I guess he doesn’t like the brand with “stop. Think.” As their slogan
That’s great! Where are the Epstein files?
What is the point of this ?
The Trump admin was never going to release anything incriminating.
The Epstein files are the distraction from all the other fuckery going on.
ouroborous, we have to start somewhere and defeating any starting point, well…
I’m not the one defeating starting points.
In the time you’ve been disregarding all inputs in favor of this glib “but what about the epstein files” comment, things have gotten progressively worse.
Holding this admin to account in anything else has repeatedly failed only Epstein has made this admin squirm. Look at how aggressively they are martyring Kirk bc it’s distraction from Epstein. That assassination has been mighty effective on changing their narrative, unfortunately.
All of that may be true, and yet posting “what about the Epstein files” in response to every new atrocity is not achieving anything at all.
still using charlie kirk as a smokescreen in the media.
Want to reduce autism? Reduce pollution. But this is the guy that’s dismantling all environmental regulations.
Exposure to fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5) has been linked with significantly increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children, particularly if exposure occurs during the third trimester of pregnancy or during early childhood, according to a meta-analysis from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
The study was published April 29, 2021, in Environmental Research Letters.
The authors noted that there has been a steep rise in the prevalence of childhood diagnosis of ASD over the past several years, from 6.7 per 1,000 people in 2000 to 16.8 per 1,000 people in 2014. Possible risk factors include those related to family, such as genetics or parental age, or the environment. Previous studies have found an association between exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM) and neurobehavioral dysfunction, but they’ve been inconclusive regarding the link between PM exposure and the development of ASD.

That and stop having kids at 35+.
But that’s not socially acceptable to say.
It doesn’t have anything to do with he agent the mother, it’s not Down syndrome.
I would have loved to start younger. But we were poor and struggling. 2008 sucked.
Having Autism is amazing tho. Maybe we should start having pregnant women stand by freeway exits?

Isn’t autism speaks that organization that supposedly advocates for autistic people, but doesn’t listen to them at all?
get your Tylenol now before they force a recall.
So not even acetaminophen, but specifically Tylenol.
Man that’s an easy lawsuit to win if I ever heard one.
Depends if they pay tribute.
Trick is that you’re basically guaranteed to lose at the USSC.
Good old SCROTUS
or paracetamol.
Why is this dumbfuck is so obsessed with autism?
He’s selling. So, he tells you that this “Really bad” companies drug can cause it. Then while you are thinking about it. He tells you that he has this new wonderful drug that might “treat it”. Snake oil anyone?
Gotta start the undesirables list with something
Whats fucking insane is, as I understand it this is one of the few pain relief methods that pregnant woman have that’s even safe for the baby.
because it’s something people don’t understand but desperately want to ‘solve’.
so you can leverage it to manipulate them. most of the anti-autism stuff is less about autism and more about controlling sad people who desperately want answers and feel ‘victimized’ by autisms existence
Anything to avoid the Epstein files
I suspect it’s projection, some autistic person probably schooled him at some point and he felt belittled. He’s dumb and petty enough, plus it’s the right kind of bigotry for the fuhrer to sell snake oil.
I would absolutely love to see all the stock put plays that happened behind doors by insiders on Friday. This seems like a corrupted stock move more than anything. Announced on a weekend no less.
These guys are going to get away with every single crime they commit until they die. Makes me feel crazy.

How about the Epstein files, do they cause autism?
If this man shows me the answer to my autism tomorrow, I’ll let it slide that he’s a pedophile. I still want those Epstein files though.
Tylenol was already suspected and debunked. Just another dead horse they want to resurrect so they can beat it again.
I wouldnt. Like, the symptoms can be inconvenient, but I find the prospect of even imagining what my personality and thought process would be like if I suddenly wasnt autistic to be difficult enough that if a drug that suppressed it suddenly came out, I probably would be too anxious to actually take it. Certainly wouldnt ignore child abuse over it.
It was more so a statement of my disbelief in his ability to do so. I’m happy you’re satisfied with who you are. Unfortunately, that’s not everyone’s reality. Honestly, I probably wouldn’t take it either until it’s been thoroughly tested, same as everything else I do or don’t take, but if I could tell with certainty it was safe, I’d try it in a heartbeat. Maybe next century we’ll know for sure, but I’m highly doubtful that drug has literally any potential at all.
It is very likely that we know the mechanism and treatment for autism. It is possible that adults may not benefit as much from treatment as children, but more clinical trials are needed. Because the treatment involves a well known 100-year-old drug that big pharma can’t monopolize, they haven’t exactly jumped at the chance to accelerate more trials. Those that have been done so far have been nothing short of miraculous.
I recommend the following reading and studies.
big pharma
Please tell me you understand that other places exist.
Where is this magical place untainted by capitalism?
Please tell me how exactly “big pharma” profits from autism.
There is nothing to explain because I made no such claim. I’m not sure how you could arrive at an assumption like that. Did you read my comment or did you see the phrase “big pharma” and fill in the rest with assumptions?
Pharma companies make money on patentable drugs that they can monopolize. They pursue the avenues that are likely to be most profitable, and profitability increases when there is less competition. A 100 year old drug that cannot be monopolized is a less profitable pursuit than others which can be monopolized. The condition to be treated is beside the point in the math of profitability.
Dude…tetrabenezine was a very old cheap drug that was patented again just a few years ago for Huntington disease.
You don’t have a clue how drug patents work.
What are you talking about.
Any drug can be patented again on a new use. This conspiracy theory comes from hydroxychloroquine days and it was bullshit then.
Anyone can get rich patenting an old drug, you just need to PROVE it actually works for that new disease.
And get back to Reddit…you linked a study that actually proves suramin is 100% safe but completely ineffective in a trial of only 44 with no placebo controls.
