It's a confusing time for parents and families. As for me, I continue to follow the advice of the American Academy of Pediatrics. They have been advocating and advising parents on child health and wellness issues since 1929.

I have been involved with the AAP at the national level, and I have witnessed firsthand how they evaluate research and put kids first in all things.

As you try to make sense of opposing advice from Trump and RFK Jr (neither of whom has any medical training) vs the advice of your pediatrician and OB/GYN, I suggest trusting the doctors who have extensive training, stay up-to-date on the latest research, and advocate for the health and well-being of your kids and family every single day.

Acetaminophen is an over-the-counter medicine used to reduce fevers and relieve pain. It is sold under many brand names, including Tylenol.

Decades of research have found that acetaminophen is safe for children when administered as recommended. Misleading claims link the medicine to autism. These false claims send a confusing, dangerous message to parents and expectant parents and does a disservice to autistic individuals. Read more at the link below.
