Show Notes
Former President Donald Trumps unfounded claims about Tylenol and autism led to a significant drop in Tylenol use among pregnant women and a surge in leucovorin prescriptions for children. A study in The Lancet found that these changes occurred almost immediately after his comments, with Tylenol use falling by 10% and leucovorin prescriptions rising by 71%. The studys authors noted that these shifts were likely due to Trumps remarks, as no similar changes were seen with other drugs. This incident underscores growing concerns about politicization in healthcare and its potential impact on patient care.
