Uncovered Background On The Tylenol/Pregnancy Issue – Why Don’t You Take An Aspirin Instead?

That’s my medical opinion, relatively worthless other than through my own experience. As a Martial Artist in multiple disciplines as well as a competitive biker, I’ve taken a lot of everything. I’ve had surgeries to repair a lot of the damage from sparring and grappling, as well as hitting the deck on my bike at over 30 MPH.

I pretty much take Aspirin only now. I know the NSAIDS work, but I try to take it easy on my liver and kidneys. Lord only knows what it could do to a baby forming in the womb with a developing liver.

Anyway, here it is. The Johnson and Johnson statement of research is in the link below:

Scientifically proven links in medicine are relatively rare–in fact, there is relatively little evidence that a lot of drugs do what they claim to do, with the difference in outcomes between placebos and beneficial outcomes being modest to nonexistent. Some of the most commonly prescribed drugs, such a SSRIs, are FDA approved despite links with serious or even fatal side effects and relatively small benefits that are barely distinguishable from a placebo. There are plenty of dangerous surgical procedures, such as many back surgeries, that are often performed and are usually unsuccessful. 

Some drugs and medical procedures are nearly miraculous, while others turn out to be busts when they hit the market, despite being FDA-approved. 

We can argue whether the preponderance of the evidence shows a link between autism and Tylenol use during pregnancy, but not whether there is a lot of evidence that there is one. Even Johnson & Johnson, in internal documents obtained in discovery for an upcoming lawsuit, was very concerned about the potential link. Johnson & Johnson spun off its Tylenol business in 2023.
