President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have controversially suggested a link between Tylenol usage and autism in children, despite inconclusive evidence. Kennedy cited studies indicating higher autism rates in countries with more acetaminophen use and in children given Tylenol after early circumcision. Major medical groups have refuted these claims, maintaining Tylenol's safety for pregnant women and highlighting the risks of untreated fevers.
