Smoking asthma
According to a new research, the use of Tylenol by children for relief of pain or fever could increase their risk of developing asthma as they get older.
The research is published in the September 20 issue of The Lancet, finding that infants treated with Tylenol (acetaminophen) during the first year of life are 46% more likely to develop asthma by the time they are 6 or 7 years old. The risk of developing severe asthma was found to increase by about 22% to 38%.
The study involved the evaluation of data for 205,487 children from 31 countries who took part in the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood.
Although the data does not establish definitively that Tylenol causes childhood asthma, researchers indicate that it may explain why asthma has become more common in recent years
