Supplemental Comment from Americans for Scientific Integrity
AnonymousSupportAdvocacy
Summary: Americans for Scientific Integrity supports the request for precautionary pediatric warnings regarding acetaminophen use in young children. They argue that because detoxification pathways are immature in early childhood, exposure shortly after birth may be as biologically relevant as prenatal exposure, and they cite studies showing structural brain differences and neurodevelopmental risks.
Please see the attached supplemental comment addressing two recently published studies that should be added to the record as relevant to the petition.
