You may have seen recent news about vaccines, Tylenol, and autism. The Department of Developmental Services (DDS) wants to reassure you that there is no scientific evidence that vaccines or Tylenol cause autism.
Vaccines are safe. They protect people from serious diseases like polio, measles, chickenpox, shingles, COVID-19, and others.
Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, also provides important health benefits when used properly. It helps with pain relief and the reduction of dangerous fevers during pregnancy.
