Trump's unfounded autism Tylenol claim
Available for over a year
Doctors in the US will soon be advised not to prescribe the pain reliever Tylenol to pregnant women, US President Donald Trump said, citing a disputed link between the drug and autism. The US President claimed on Monday that taking Tylenol, known as paracetamol elsewhere, "is no good" and that pregnant women should "fight like hell" to only take it in cases of extreme fever. Medical experts have strongly pushed back on the claims, with some calling the President's comments dangerous. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ CWR's Vic Minett spoke to GP Dr Sarah Jarvis to discuss further.
