New research from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) is offering much-needed clarity to pregnant women worldwide regarding the safety of common painkillers.

A large-scale data analysis of over 264,000 pregnancies led to two studies conducted by BGU’s Dr. Sharon Daniel. The research found that taking paracetamol (Acamol/Tylenol) or Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (Advil/Nurofen) does not increase the risk of birth defects.
