The Tylenol brand is currently under scrutiny as past posts from an associated social media account have resurfaced, causing a stir among netizens.
One post that has particularly caught the public's attention is a statement from the brand advising against the use of their products during pregnancy.
According to Breitbart, the account, which has been inactive since 2021, made a post on March 7, 2017, stating, We actually dont recommend using any of our products while pregnant. Thank you for taking the time to voice your concerns today. This post, among others, has been unearthed by curious social media users, sparking a wave of online discussions.
Another post from June 2019 has also been circulating. In this post, the brand seems to be congratulating a woman on her pregnancy, while simultaneously admitting that Tylenol has not been tested for use during pregnancy.
The post reads, Congrats on your upcoming addition! SO exciting! Itd be great to touch base real quick since we havent tested Tylenol to be used during pregnancy (and see what coupons we have for baby!) Call us when you can at 1-877-895-3665, M-F from 9a-5:30pm ET w/ your Twitter handle ??
In a subsequent post, the brand apologized to a woman for their product's inability to alleviate her pregnancy pains. The post reads, Were sorry to hear this hasnt helped your pregnancy pains! Please be sure to talk to your doctor for alternative pain relief options. We do have a few questions we would like to ask you so please give us a call 1-877-895-3665 M-F from 9 AM-5:30 PM ET.
The resurgence of these posts coincides with President Donald Trump's significant Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) announcement. Alongside public health officials, including Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz, Trump advised pregnant women to limit their intake of Tylenol due to potential links to an increased risk of autism.
Trump stated, I think I can say that there are certain groups of people that dont take vaccines and dont take any pills that have no autism. That have no autism. Does that tell you something? Thats currently, is that a correct statement, by the way? Kennedy responded, There are some studies that suggest that, referring to the Amish community.
Trump further announced that the FDA would be notifying physicians that the use of acetaminophen which is basically commonly known as Tylenol during pregnancy can be associated with a very increased risk of autism. He added, So, taking Tylenol is not good Ill say it, its not good.
In response to this announcement, some women, presumably with far-left views, have taken to social media to protest by consuming Tylenol. One woman posted a video with the caption, heres [sic] me, a PREGNANT woman, taking TYLENOL because I believe in science and not someone who has no medical background. However, she failed to acknowledge that Trump's announcement was not based on personal opinion.
The Trump administration has prioritized investigating the root cause of the dramatic increase in autism rates in the United States. Data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicates that 1 in 31 children in the United States now have autism.
This alarming statistic underscores the importance of the administration's focus on this issue.
