President Donald Trump has issued a shocking new warning about the popular medication Tylenol, urging children and pregnant women to stay away from the drug.
The president, alongside Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr., first announced the risks of Tylenol last month.
Trump and Kennedy revealed that the over-the-counter drug could increase the chances of autism in kids if pregnant women take it.
The president has reiterated the risks of the drug in a Truth Social post on Sunday. His comments came in response to an article by the Daily Mail that slammed the FDA for its silence amid a surge in warnings about Tylenol.
The message was explicitly directed to pregnant women in the country.
“Pregnant Women, DON’T USE TYLENOL UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, DON’T GIVE TYLENOL TO YOUR YOUNG CHILD FOR VIRTUALLY ANY REASON,” Trump said.
“BREAK UP THE MMR SHOT INTO THREE TOTALLY SEPARATE SHOTS (NOT MIXED!), TAKE CHICKEN P SHOT SEPARATELY, TAKE HEPATITAS B SHOT AT 12 YEARS OLD, OR OLDER, AND, IMPORTANTLY, TAKE VACCINE IN 5 SEPARATE MEDICAL VISITS! President DJT,” he added.
In September, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed the Trump administration’s take on pills, such as Tylenol.
The press secretary said the administration “does not believe popping more pills is always the answer for better health.”
“There is mounting evidence finding a connection between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and autism — and that’s why the Administration is courageously issuing this new health guidance. Additionally, the Trump Administration is approving a new treatment option that has been found to improve some autism symptoms,” Leavitt added.
“President Trump pledged to address America’s skyrocketing rates of autism, and his team is deploying Gold Standard Science to deliver on this pledge. We will not be deterred in these efforts as we know millions across America are grateful,” she concluded.
As one would expect, Tyleonl’s parent company, Kenvue, has denied the Trump administration’s claims.
The parent company claimed that multiple studies do not link Tylenol to autism.
In a statement to the Daily Mail, Kenvue strongly disagreed with the White House.
“Acetaminophen is the safest pain reliever option for pregnant women as needed throughout their entire pregnancy,” Kenvue said.
“Without it, women face dangerous choices: suffer through conditions like fever that are potentially harmful to both mom and baby or use riskier alternatives. High fevers and pain are widely recognized as potential risks to a pregnancy if left untreated,” it went on.
As a form of protest against the Trump administration, liberals have recorded themselves taking Tylenol to show their defiance of the administration.
“Me popping Tylenol while pregnant cause wtf is the government gonna do about it,” one liberal said on TikTok.
