Following President Trump’s controversial statement against Tylenol use during pregnancy, medical expert Tami S. Rowen highlights the complexities surrounding acetaminophen use. Rowen shares her professional and personal experiences to clarify the safety concerns and stresses the importance of evidence-based medical guidance amidst widespread misinformation.
President Trump's recent remarks advising pregnant women against taking Tylenol have sparked widespread debate in medical circles. Tami S. Rowen, a renowned obstetrician at the University of California, responds by underscoring the critical role of acetaminophen in managing pregnancy-related fever and pain.
Rowen, drawing from her experience, cites evidence indicating no definitive link between acetaminophen use and neurodevelopmental disorders when familial genetic factors are considered. Contrarily, untreated fevers during pregnancy pose a greater autism risk.
Amidst misinformation, Rowen advocates for balanced and evidence-driven healthcare advice, reinforcing that acetaminophen remains a safe, recommended pain relief option for expectant mothers.
