Trump Takes Dual Action on Autism Crisis

Share

President Trump has announced that the FDA will warn physicians about potential autism risks linked to prenatal acetaminophen (Tylenol) use, urging pregnant women to limit its use unless medically necessary. This announcement comes as the FDA takes steps towards approving leucovorin calcium tablets as treatment for cerebral folate deficiency (CFD), a condition associated with developmental delays and autism-like features. The initiative is part of a broader response to a significant rise in autism rates over the past two decades, advocating for preventive and treatment measures.
