PDF6 pages153 KB
Acetaminophen has long been considered safe for use during pregnancy, but recent studies have raised concerns about its potential link to neurodevelopmental disorders in children. The Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine reviews the evidence, noting that while some studies suggest increased risks, these findings must be interpreted cautiously due to limitations in observational research. The document reaffirms acetaminophen as the recommended first-line medication for managing pain and fever during pregnancy, emphasizing the importance of treating these conditions for maternal well-being.
