Prenatal Exposure to Acetaminophen and Childhood Asthmatic Symptoms in a Population-Based Cohort in Los Angeles, California

Zeyan Liew et al.

Summary: The study found that prenatal exposure to acetaminophen in pregnant women is associated with higher risks for asthma diagnosis, wheezing, and dry cough in children. This risk is particularly evident in Black/African American and Asian/Pacific Islander children, as well as when mothers experience high psychosocial stress during pregnancy. Further research is needed to assess the relationship between prenatal acetaminophen exposure and other social/environmental stressors with clinically confirmed outcomes.

Summary: Paracetamol (APAP) is a commonly used medication for mild to moderate pain and reducing fever, but research suggests prenatal exposure may increase the risk of fetal development disorders. Recommendations include cautioning pregnant women to minimize use and consult medical professionals.

Summary: This umbrella review found a modest association between in-utero exposure to Paracetamol and the future development of asthma in children, while the association with infancy exposure was less consistent. All studies conducted so far are observational in nature, with inherent biases. Further research, preferably randomized controlled trials, is recommended to address this important question.
