‘No evidence’: medical experts reject autism claims

23 September 2025 16:46 | News

Australia’s best medical officials claimed the connection between Donald Trump’s use of paracetamol in pregnancy and autism.

The Chief Medical Officer Michael Kidd and the therapeutic goods administration participated in other global drug regulators, and the world’s leading clinicians and scientists did not show a causal connection between the use of paracetamol during pregnancy and autism or ADHD.

TGA, Tuesday, “Paracetamol, as used as used as used in pregnant women for pain or fever for the proposed treatment option continues.” He said.

“More importantly, untreated fever and pain may pose a risk for the unborn baby and these symptoms may emphasize the importance of the director with the recommended treatment.”

Health secretary Robert F Kennedy JR, surrounded by the US President, associated autism with the use of Tylenol over the cave of pain drugs.

Tylenol is the American Paracetamol brand and has the same main component acetaminopen.

There was no evidence to support the claim, but the US Food and Pharmaceutical Administration took action to change the acetaminofen product labels while publishing a letter to doctors that tells the decision of “still belonging to parents”.

Australian medical experts branded allegations useless and alarmist.

Royal Australia General College Vice President Ramya Raman predicted that many patients will now raise the problem with the GP.

“This announcement faces the risk of causing unnecessary alarms for pregnant women and should be approached carefully, Dr said Dr Raman.

“Expert Australian researchers agree that published scientific studies are not a causal relationship between pregnancy and the use of paracetamol during autism, it can only be a connection.”

Margie Danchin, a clinician scientist at the University of Melbourne and Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, said the claim was based on non -intact research.

“This was not a randomized study, not even a randomized study, not even likely,” he told AAP on Tuesday.

“This is very interested… There will be serious health results.”

Nicole Rogerson, General Manager of Australian Awareness Awareness, described the US announcement as “jazz hands and nonsense ..

Rogerson said, “Here will be people who listen to those who fall in hooks, calligraphy and platinum,” Rogerson said.

Gino Peecoraro, the head of national expert female households and gynecologists, said that the announcement of Mr. Trump is not useful and has the potential to cause unnecessary anxiety for pregnant women and their families.

“Numerous studies found a relationship between the use of paracetamol and autism spectrum disorder, but none of them found causality,” he said.

“Even in the studies that put forward the association, the effect of the biggest Swedish study by looking at 2.5 million children born between 1995-2019 is very light with an increase of 0.1 percent (from 1.33 percent to 1.42 percent).”

TGA is thought to be a pregnancy category in Australia, that is, it is thought to be safe for use during pregnancy.

“TGA does not have a broader active security research for paracetamol and autism or paracetamol and neurodeficial disorders.”

Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles said he would not give medical advice.

“Any advice or detection from the US FDA will look very carefully, but… Any woman who has any interrogation about which medications they should take during pregnancy is a matter of a thing to take with their doctors,” he said.

The Australian Australian Autism researcher Andrew Whitehouse, the Children’s Research Institute, said that the evidence that Lucovorin could cure autism was “weak ..

“A few small work proposes possible small developments in behavioral results, but these studies are limited to small numbers, inconsistent findings and lack of independent reproduction,” he said.

“Families and clinicians should be cautious, and at the same time know that there are many support programs with strong scientific support that reliably support the development of autistic children.”

“Compared to these proven approaches, Leucovorin is still not proven.”
