Dr. Mehmet Oz clarified that the Trump administration is not advising pregnant women to avoid Tylenol altogether, despite President Trump's remarks suggesting a link between the medication and autism. Oz, from CMS, stated that acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, is considered the safest option for treating fevers during pregnancy, as fevers themselves pose health risks. While the FDA noted a potential association, a causal link to autism remains unproven. Medical experts and Tylenol's manufacturer emphasize that the drug is safe for pregnant women when needed and advised by a doctor.
