FLASHBACK: Even Tylenol Doesn’t Recommend Using Tylenol While Pregnant

In an effort to thumb their noses at President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., liberal pregnant women have taken to filming themselves popping acetaminophen (Tylenol) tablets — despite an eight-year-old social media post from the drugmaker itself warning against it.

“We actually don’t recommend using any of our products while pregnant. Thank you for taking the time to voice your concerns today,” the company’s official X account posted in March of 2017.

And it wasn’t even just the one time — Tylenol’s account posted similar statements on several occasions.

It’s almost like Tylenol doesn’t want you to use Tylenol while pregnant.

The Department of Health and Human Services also shared the old post, saying, “No caption needed.”

The White House account shared the Tylenol recommendation as well, along with a photo of the president holding one of his signature red baseball caps that said “TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING.”

The women filming themselves taking the drug were doing so in reaction to a press conference that took place on Monday, during which President Trump and HHS Secretary Kennedy raised questions about the possibility of a causal link between autism and mothers who had used acetaminophen during pregnancy or had given it to their children as infants.

Kennedy is far from the first to raise such a concern.

A Mount Sinai study published in August suggested that there was a link between prenatal acetaminophen use and both autism and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Findings published by the National Institutes of Health in 2017 suggested that Tylenol use in infants and young children may pose an even greater risk for autism and ADHD than use during pregnancy.

In 2019, a study from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with elevated risks for autism and ADHD.

But still, in order to push back on Trump and Kennedy, pregnant women began posting videos of themselves as they swallowed the pills.

Just to stick it to Trump and RFK Jr, liberal women who are pregnant are posting videos on social media of them downing Tylenol

Dr. Nicole Saphier begged them to stop, saying, “Pregnant women popping Tylenol like Tic Tacs just to stick it to Trump — please stop. Don’t weaponize your pregnancy for a political point. Consider acetaminophen only when absolutely necessary, for the shortest duration and lowest dose, even the makers of Tylenol say this.”

Don’t weaponize your pregnancy for a political point.

Consider acetaminophen only when absolutely necessary, for the shortest duration and lowest dose, even the makers of Tylenol say this.
