In the past several years, federally-funded researchers have uncovered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/news-events\/news-releases\/nih-funded-study-suggests-acetaminophen-exposure-pregnancy-linked-higher-risk-adhd-autism\">disturbing links between acetaminophen-based medications like Tylenol\u00ae and a wide range of serious neurodevelopmental disorders<\/a>, including autism and ADHD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-acetaminophen-based-painkillers-became-an-underrated-developmental-danger\">How Acetaminophen-based Painkillers Became an Underrated Developmental Danger<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Acetaminophen, sometimes called paracetamol, is a chemical compound that can be used to manage fevers and relieve pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When acetaminophen was first synthesized in the late 19<sup>th<\/sup> century, scientists believed that it had limited use as a commercial painkiller: laboratory tests and trials showed that, while acetaminophen could effectively relieve pain-related symptoms, its routine side-effects included <a href=\"https:\/\/books.google.co.in\/books?id=jglFsz5EJR8C&amp;pg=PA439&amp;redir_esc=y#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false\">headache, nausea, and even liver disease<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, interest in paracetamol rebounded in the 1900s, and, by 1955, it was being sold over-the-counter in pharmacies across the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, most Americans are more than aware that acetaminophen can sometimes cause discomfort. However, its low cost and relatively short-lived side effects have cemented paracetamol\u2019s status as an easily accessible home remedy with a wide variety of every-day applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Up until very recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2021\/09\/23\/health\/acetaminophen-pregnancy-wellness\/index.html\">acetaminophen was considered so safe that it is the main painkiller thT physicians recommended to pregnant women<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tylenol-autism-and-other-neurodevelopmental-disorders\">Tylenol<span id=\"copyr\">\u00ae<\/span>, Autism, and Other Neurodevelopmental Disorders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized img-block\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5483\" width=\"830\" height=\"830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2-220x220.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image img-none\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5483\" width=\"295\" height=\"295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2-220x220.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/autism-tylenol-mass-torts-img2-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 295px) 100vw, 295px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Some scientists have suspected for over a decade that acetaminophens may not be as safe for pregnant women as pharmaceutical manufacturers claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2008, researchers uncovered a tenuous link between <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1362361307089518\">painkillers, routine vaccinations, and the later emergence of autism spectrum disorders<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the findings of this seminal research were later misconstrued as evidence that vaccinations could cause autism spectrum disorders, further studies indicated that prenatal acetaminophen exposure could be a significant but often-overlooked risk factor for an assortment of serious neurodevelopmental conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-national-institutes-of-health-findings-on-acetaminophen-and-developmental-disorders-like-autism-spectrum-disorder\">National Institutes of Health findings on acetaminophen and developmental disorders like autism spectrum disorder<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Over 10 years after Stephen T.

When pharmaceutical companies, retailers, and resellers fail to warn pregnant women that their products could injure their unborn children, they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/how-were-you-injured\/prescription-drug-injuries\/\">could be held liable for negligence<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you believe that your child\u2019s attention deficit hyper activity disorder or autism spectrum disorder could be related to your prenatal use of Tylenol\u00ae or another over-the-counter acetaminophen, your family could be entitled to significant compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-legal-damages-for-autism-injuries-caused-by-prenatal-use-of-acetaminophen-products\">Legal damages for autism injuries caused by prenatal use of acetaminophen products.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every state has its own laws defining and limiting the damages available to personal injury plaintiffs. In Texas, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/faqs\/what-is-my-personal-injury-case-worth-in-austin\/\">legal damages<\/a> typically fall into the following two categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Economic damages.<\/strong> Economic damages are expenses and losses that have an easily quantifiable dollar amount. Examples of economic damages include medical expenses, anticipated care needs, and lost income.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Non-economic damages. <\/strong>Non-economic damages are intangible losses that are more difficult to quantify. Examples of non-economic damages include emotional pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment, and loss of companionship.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Under certain, limited circumstances, courts may also award <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justinian.com\/personal-injury-blog\/this-is-why-we-need-punitive-damages\/\">punitive damages<\/a>, which are intended to punish a reckless or otherwise exceptionally negligent wrongdoer for their misconduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calculating damages, especially non-economic damages, can be difficult. While Texas allows personal injury plaintiffs to calculate their non-economic damages using a multiplier, actual awards may be influenced both by legal precedent and the availability of compelling evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-you-shouldn-t-have-to-fight-for-justice-alone\">You Shouldn\u2019t Have to Fight for Justice Alone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The early detection of neurodevelopmental disorders can make a life-changing difference for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders and ADHD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, even simple cognitive screenings can cost thousands of dollars: a significant amount of money that prevents many families from asking a physician about the warning signs of an emerging disability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-obtaining-compensation-preventing-others-from-being-injured-in-the-future\">Obtaining compensation, preventing others from being injured in the future.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While a personal injury lawsuit could help your family secure the compensation needed to fight for your child\u2019s future, pharmaceutical companies and retailers have long been reluctant to admit when their products inflict injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since companies like Johnson &amp;
