Finding The Facts In The Tylenol Autism Case with Ann Bauer

Amidst the many studies released concerning correlation between Tylenol use in pregnant women and neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism and ADHD, it’s easy to call facts fiction. But when specialists are providing legitimate, replicable, research time after time, we should probably start listening. 

Today, it’s time to cut through the outside noise and find the facts in the Tylenol autism lawsuit. 

Learn more about the research that has led to the historic lawsuit in this episode of the David vs. Goliath podcast with elite personal injury lawyers Matt Dolman and Stan Gipe and their guest, esteemed epidemiologist Ann Bauer. Matt and Stan ask the hard questions concerning the legitimacy of the Tylenol research, why the general public is pushing back against these claims, the FDA’s caution to back the lawsuit, the animal studies that back up the human research of acetaminophen effects on the fetal brain, potential arguments to explain away the need for an added warning label for pregnant women on the Tylenol bottle, and more!
