Guest guest Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 certainly something I have thought was involved all along (along with antibiotics) but those that take tylenol are also those that are vaccinated in most cases. those parents that don't give tylenol are also those parents who don't vaccinate or use antibiotics or other drugs if possible but it looks like in this study both groups got MMR.............just one group didn't take tylenol does anyone have this study?

One study of 83 children with autism and 80 children without the condition released in Jan 2009 in Autism showed that use of acetaminophen or Tylenol after measles-mumps-rubella vaccination was associated with much greater risk of autism. Schultz and colleagues from the University of California San Diego found among children aged younger than 5 years, those who used Tylenol after MMR vaccination were 6 times as likely to develop autism as those who did not. Among children with regression in development, those who used Tylenol were 4 times as likely to suffer autism as those without. Among children who had post-vaccination sequelae, those who received Tylenol were 8 times as likely to have autism as those who did not. On the other hand, the researchers found Ibuprofen use after MMR was not associated with autism. They concluded that the preliminary study suggested that Tylenol after MMR was associated with autism. A. R from Utah State University in Logan Utah published an article in Sept 2003 in BMC Prediatrics saying that the etiology of autism involves infections of the pregnant mother or of a young child. Infections often lead to fever for which Tylenol is often used. explained that use of Tylenol inhibits processes that evolved over millions of years to protect against microbial attack and interferes with normal immunological development in the brain leading to neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism.
