I saw a report earlier today about a spike in autism diagnoses. Then I saw this.
An extensive Israeli study has found that mothers who continuously use a popular pain relief medication during their pregnancy face an increased risk of the newborn suffering from autism or ADHD.
The meta-analysis by a team of researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, published Tuesday in the American Journal of Epidemiology, showed that prolonged exposure to acetaminophen — also known as paracetamol — during pregnancy is associated with a 30 percent increase in relative risk for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and a 20% increase in relative risk for autistic spectrum disorder (ASD), compared with those who did not take acetaminophen during pregnancy.
