Autism & Paracetamol: Facts Families Should Know 💡

Headlines suggesting a link between paracetamol in pregnancy and autism can sound worrying. Here are the facts 👇

✅ There is no proven link between paracetamol and autism
✅ Autism is influenced mainly by genetics and environment
✅ Paracetamol is considered safe in pregnancy when used as directed
✅ Autism is lifelong and diverse, not something to “cure”
✅ Families deserve support, not fear or guilt

⚠️ Fear-driven headlines can:

Lead to avoiding safe medicines

Shift focus away from what truly helps

Early evidence-based therapies

Inclusive schools and communities

Support for carers and families

Understanding and acceptance
