Vice President JD Vance said Sept. 24 that pregnant women should follow the advice of their doctor after the Trump administration this week recommended that pregnant women not take acetaminophen, the primary ingredient in Tylenol, due to the possible risk of autism.

“What I took from the president’s announcement and also the CDC’s recommendations here is we just have to be careful. We know some of these medications have side effects. We know that even despite those side effects, sometimes they’re necessary,” Vance told NewsNation, referring to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
