Tylenol Autism Lawsuit

Описание: Our Product Liability Attorneys are reviewing Tylenol autism lawsuits for hundreds of parents in all 50 states. Parents who took acetaminophen for more than 30 days and have a child diagnosed with autism may pursue legal justice.

Potentially thousands of parents will file lawsuits against Tylenol manufacturers for the drug’s link to autism. There is strong scientific evidence suggesting Tylenol, the widely used pain-killer during pregnancy, increases the likelihood of having a baby with autism.

Parents whose children were diagnosed with autism could eventually receive significant settlements.

Research Links Tylenol to Autism
Several peer-reviewed studies have shown that exposure to acetaminophen during pregnancy increases the likelihood of autism.

Specifically, research from Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public analyzed data from the Boston Birth Cohort. The Boston Birth Cohort is a long-term study of factors influencing pregnancy and child development.

Through measuring the amount of acetaminophen and two of its byproducts in samples collected from umbilical cord blood, researchers found that, on average, by the time children were 8.9 years old, 6.6% were diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Further, the authors of the study classified the amount of acetaminophen and its by-products into thirds, from lowest to highest. Compared to children exposed to the least amount of acetaminophen in utero, those with middle-third exposure were 2 times more likely to develop autism. Similarly, those in the highest exposure group were 3 times as likely to develop autism.

The 2019 study concluded that the results support previous studies linking acetaminophen exposure in the womb to autism and underscored the need for additional research.

What Neurological Disorders can a Child Develop from Tylenol Use During Pregnancy?
Studies have consistently concluded that acetaminophen use during pregnancy may increase the possibility of an autism diagnosis.

Scientists and health professionals around the world indicate Tylenol use may contribute to the onset of disorders and symptoms such as:
Autism
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Language Delays
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
Conduct Disorder
Decreased Executive Function
Decreased IQ levels

If your child was diagnosed with any of the above, it’s worth consulting with a Tylenol Autism Lawyer. Consultations are free.

Identifying the Signs of Autism
While studies suggest acetaminophen increases the likelihood of the above diagnoses, our law firm is currently only handling Tylenol claims related to Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a broad range of neurological disorders that usually involve challenges in social skills, repetitive behaviors and communication. Typically, the signs of autism become apparent in the first two years of life.

There are disorders on the autism spectrum. While some autistic can live independently, others may need lifelong assistance for daily tasks. Disorders on the autism spectrum include the following:
Autism Disorder (not otherwise specified)
Rett Syndrome
Kanner’s Syndrome
Asperger’s Syndrome
High-functioning Autism
Pervasive developmental disorder (PDD-NOS)
Childhood disintegrative disorder

Who can File an Acetaminophen Lawsuit?
Parents who took Tylenol or generic brands of acetaminophen products may qualify for product liability lawsuits against drug manufacturers. We are accepting clients who:
Took Tylenol for 30 or more days during pregnancy
Have a child medically diagnosed with Autism
Plaintiffs will have stronger claims if they can prove took Tylenol in high doses during pregnancy and they do not have a family history of autism, pregnancy complications or other potential likelihood factors.

How Can a Lawyer Help?
Pursuing a lawsuit against acetaminophen manufacturers will be a monumental undertaking. Parents must hire a team with the resources and knowledge to pursue these claims to ensure their families receive just compensation.

Autism is not a monolith. There are varying degrees of autism and how much intervention an autistic person may need. In more severe cases, parents may have to figure out the proper interventions to help their autistic children navigate the world. These interventions are often costly. A Tylenol Autism Lawyer can help parents recoup some of the costs from past interventions, as well as set children up for long-term care plans.
