AAP Statement on White House Autism Announcement

We are aware that there is confusing information currently circulating in regards to vaccines, autism, and tylenol use. At this time, we are not altering our recommendations on the current vaccine schedule or the use of tylenol as recommended by your provider. Below is a link to the American Academy of Pediatrics response to the White House Autism Announcement. At the bottom of the article you will see a section, “For more information.” This includes more detail regarding autism and vaccines (including the MMR vaccine), tylenol dosing, leucovorin use in autism, Hepatitis B vaccines for infants , and vaccine preservatives. We are here for you if you have any questions and desire to have a trustworthy supportive relationship as we provide the best care for your children that is backed by reliable evidence- based medicine. It is our goal to be prompt and clear in our communication as we move forward.
