Pregnant women are filming themselves taking Tylenol in defiance against Donald Trump's shaky claim the painkiller causes autism in children.
The president announced that doctors in the US will begin advising expectant mothers against taking the drug because of an apparent link.
Trump, 79, claimed that taking Tylenol 'is no good', adding that pregnant women should 'fight like hell' to avoid taking it, except for in cases of extreme fever.
Several moms have gone viral on TikTok for posting videos of themselves taking Tylenol in protest.
'Here's me, a PREGNANT woman, taking TYLENOL because I believe in science and not someone who has no medical background,' one mom called Grace wrote over a video of herself taking the pill and dancing.
'Quit believing everything you see and hear,' she wrote in the caption for the video, which racked up almost 30,000 likes and 305,000 views in just 17 hours.
Several studies have linked Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, to higher rates of autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
However, the findings have not often been consistent and many doctors say it is completely safe, and even recommended, because high fevers during pregnancy can harm the mother and child.
Calley Means, an advisor to RFK Jr, shared several videos of moms taking part in the Tylenol video trend on X with the comment: 'No words'.
'Democrats are now chugging bottles of Tylenol on TikTok,' Means wrote as he shared his exasperation to his social media following.
Another mom-to-be named Natalie wrote on TikTok: 'About to take Tylenol for my headache while pregnant, because I don't take my medical advice from a man who doesn't have a degree in science, healthcare, or medicine, and who had a parasitic brain infection.

Nobody is really taking this seriously regardless of party affiliation.
TRUTH!
of each...
They act like Trump and Kennedy just made it up. There’s actual medical research on it. But that wouldn’t make a good TikTok
Always the performative crap with these people. It’s so tiresome

These are probably the same people who ridiculed those who took ivermectin during the pandemic.
“Try to select a cliff with moss growing on the rock.”
On a rainy day...
Reading the headline, I expected The Bee.
Is Tylenol an approved treatment for TDS?
“Why, it’s almost like having an abortion,” one of them was not heard to say.
Feel sorry for the babies
More,people die from tylenol each year than those who died from Hydroxychloriquine and Ivermectin combined over several years.
Great Question!, LOL
It looks like they’re running the experiment. We’ll find out the results in 5 years.
Not surprising that women who are okay with having babies stabbed in the back of their neck and having their brains sucked out would be willing to take Tylenol while pregnant.
Bad for your liver.
Lib women are always going to do the opposite of what 47 says.
Hmmm....
This is unimaginably stupid. It’s hard to imagine TDS so severe you would intentionally take such a chance with your unborn child.
