Acetaminophen Remains Safe for Pregnant Women, Doctors Say Amid FDA Concerns
Leading medical groups say acetaminophen is still the safest way for pregnant women to treat fever and pain, despite a recent FDA notice linking the drug to developmental disorders. They argue untreated fever and pain pose bigger risks to mother and baby. The FDA admits no proven causal link. Doctors urge proper dosing and caution. The message: use Tylenol when needed, under a doctor's guidance.
