About this listen

Doctors are pushing back on President Donald Trump’s new claim that using Tylenol during pregnancy could lead to autism in children, and the administration’s scrutiny of vaccines.

On Monday, Trump announced that the U.S. 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 proving 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.

WISH-TV Medical Expert Dr. Janel Gordon joined Daybreak Tuesday to discuss the topics and answer questions.
