Paracetamol (Tylenol) is one of the most effective and safe painkillers ever discovered. Keep within the recommended dose. Take it in pregnancy if you need to. It has been shown in MANY studies not to cause autism. 🧪

Just read this book by @hayleygullen.com with forward by @lizoriordan.bsky.social . Not a graphic novel person normally but it is great and so bluntly true to my experiences. Highly recommend the book, not having breast cancer or some of the tough NHS experiences

Already 35 pages in, great

Mine arrived today

Dear parents - Yes you can give your sick child paracetamol if they’re >3 months old. It’s an excellent painkiller. It brings down a high temperature. It’s one of the safest drugs available. You are right to want to soothe your child’s distress. Evidence supports your good parenting. Be confident.

Never heard of this book, then 3x in one day

Remember as a Med student in Leeds early 80s being frogmarched to a pt and being told this is TB, you’ll never see it again. Pre AIDS, how wrong they were

Drink water.
Skip the booze.
Don’t smoke.
Move your body 3–4 times a week.
Sleep well.

That’s it.
