Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing Johnson and Johnson, accusing the pharmaceutical company of failing to warn consumers about the risk of taking Tylenol while pregnant.
This lawsuit, the first of its kind from a state government, comes a month after President Donald Trump and U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced updated guidance discouraging pregnant women from taking acetaminophen, citing it as a possible cause of autism. The announcement set off a wave of controversy in the health care community, and confusion among pregnant women unsure how they should manage fever and pain during pregnancy.

“Oh, finally Tylenol is suing over all of the false narratives about their completely safe product."
re-reads headline
“Wait.. Oh. Oh, we’re fucked.”
Texas is dumb as hell.
Discovery should be really fun on this lawsuit.
Let’s skip the middle man here and get to pre-emptive lawsuits.
Dear everyone, I am suing you all for all the money for all the crimes you might commit against me. In advance.
Corkyskog6 months later. Johnson and Johnson owns Texas after counter lawsuit.
They need to go after all the cheats! My penis pump did not make me 6”! But my wife complaints about how painful it is…hose and all. Very sharp objects, I don’t understand who designed this thing. Like hpe do I get my self out of it and how do I get it out of her? And why am I still not 6”!
Why is Tylenol not suing RFK? I bet this is a ploy to help out a buddy who owns a competing pharmaceutical company. It’s always a scheme with them.
More likely stock manipulation. Look for shorts before the filing.
Lol! Cool. Show us the evidence behind these claims, then. This should be fascinating.
Unless the judge is corrupt, Paxton will have to provide actual facts and evidence in order to win his ridiculous case. Merely calling acetaminophen a “possible” cause does not meet judicial standards. Unsupported crackpot guesses are not evidence. Neither are Facebook posts.
Unfortunately, J&J sucks, too. They just happen to have science on their side.
Having a quick look- the Tylenol packet says you should consult a doctor before taking if you’re Pregnant.
So even if this crackpot ‘Paracetamol gives you Autism’ hoo ha was true (it isn’t) - wouldn’t the warning give them indemnity?
