Note:
Acetaminophen (APAP or paracetamol) is a commonly used medication by pregnant women, however, concerns have been raised over possible adverse effects of APAP on fetal development. We propose to utilize data sources available from Taiwan from a large population-based pregnancy cohort to investigate whether prenatal exposures to APAP affect childhood cancer risk. Our project is among the first on this topic, and addresses needs voiced by regulatory agencies, for more thorough research to better understand the safety of APAP in pregnancy and to inform regulatory recommendations.
