Health Canada says there is no evidence that using Tylenol during pregnancy can cause autism or other neurological disorders in children.

The agency made the comments after the U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA) said there may be a link between acetaminophen and autism. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol, which is used as a pain and fever reliever.
