Asma Khalil: Paracetamol in Pregnancy and the Importance of Evidence-Based Communication
Asma Khalil, Professor of Maternal Fetal Medicine at St. George’s Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“WHEN EVIDENCE SPEAKS, FEAR SHOULD NOT.
In 2025, headlines around the world left many pregnant women frightened that taking paracetamol during pregnancy could increase the risk of autism.

Watch the full conversation here.”
