US EditionTrump administration suggests Tylenol during pregnancy causes autism
- President Donald Trump announced in a White House statement on Monday that Tylenol may cause autism, suggesting a mass withdrawal from the drug.
- The announcement followed longstanding legal and public debates over Tylenol’s safety, with a 2024 landmark study largely debunking a connection between acetaminophen and autism.
- Kenvue, Tylenol’s manufacturer since its 2023 spin-off from Johnson & Johnson, strongly denied the claim, citing “sound science” that acetaminophen does not cause autism.
- Shares of Kenvue dropped 7.5% Monday, reducing market value by about $2.6 billion, continuing a 25% decline over six months amid growing public skepticism about Tylenol’s safety.
- The controversy highlights ongoing tensions between political claims and scientific evidence, while experts and analysts debate potential impacts on public health and Kenvue’s business.
