took tylenol -- acetaminophen per se of any brand had behavioral problems like hyperactivity disorders and things like that. here's my problem with the study. i find the science real, but we have to be careful. we don't know how much of this medication the mothers took. so -- i don't foresee -- because there's never been any study looking at the side effects of thised you took an occasional acetaminophen, a regular dose, 350 milligrams every four to six hours, that that's going to do anything to the fetus. i guess if you overexpose now with this study, there is the potential that it -- you could have intrauterine transmission. it could affect brain development and end up with behavioral problems later on. i would not shy away from taking
