**Texas Sues Tylenol Maker Over Unproven Claim That Pain Medicine Causes Autism**
The state of Texas has filed a lawsuit against the manufacturer of Tylenol, alleging that the company made unsubstantiated claims linking the pain relief medication to autism.
According to the lawsuit, the company promoted the idea that using Tylenol could increase the risk of autism spectrum disorders, despite a lack of scientific evidence supporting this assertion.
Authorities argue that these unfounded claims not only mislead consumers but also contribute to public misinformation about the safety of the widely used painkiller.
The case highlights ongoing concerns over false health claims in the pharmaceutical industry and emphasizes the importance of evidence-based information for consumers.
The Tylenol maker has yet to release an official response to the lawsuit. Further updates are expected as the case progresses.
