Correlation is not causation

And if you still believe correlation is causation, please google spurious correlations. [/quote]

Stop grasping at straws.  Its NOT safe. There isnt a single study in humans that says its safe.

Well no one has found much in the way of harm when taken at recommended doses, so that’s about as close as you are going to get to “safe.” Correlation is NOT causation. For all we know, whatever makes kids autistic could also cause severe pain in pregnancy, causing someone to reach for Tylenol. And sibling studies have not found the same links.

Should you take it multiple times per day for every discomfort? Probably not. Should you consider taking it if you have a prolonged 103 fever while pregnant? Yes, yes you should, unless you really want to miscarry or have a child who has the brain of an infant forever.

Nothing is 100% safe, and that includes the “natural” crap in your medicine cabinet. But the risks of Tylenol by any measure are exceptionally low.  Risk benefit analysis, people. [/quote]
