This week, we dive into the pill bottle and the press cycle. Acetaminophen (aka Tylenol) is one of the most widely used medications in the world. But thanks to recent claims linking it to autism, it’s suddenly a political hot potato.

We break down:

  • How acetaminophen actually works (spoiler: it’s not an NSAID)
  • The real risks, like liver damage and accidental overdose
  • What the latest headlines got wrong about pregnancy and autism
  • Why misinformation hurts more than a headache

Join us for a dose of clarity, a splash of satire, and a reminder that science isn’t a soundbite.
