One of the ways vaccines contribute to asthma and eczema

[janellesmommy]

It seems that most parents give their babies Tylenol after shots, and many give it right before the shot. A large study found that giving Tylenol even once in the baby's first year significantly increases the risk of developming asthma and eczema by 6 or 7 years old.

Thank you, I liked that article.
Atleast it gives me one reason to be against tylenol, everyone suggests it for any little pain or even extra crankyness!

If the study is on the nightly news, I expect my mother to call me frantically and tell me about it. At that point I'll have to admit to her that I never actually gave my kids Tylenol when she told me to.

oh ya that sounds about right. my dd has had eczema since her first shots at 3 months (had all her shots late untill the 2 year shots) and guess what she had her fisrt asthma attack last friday. was booked in the hospital it was so bad. she turned 6 in june. never will vax another child.... oh ya she has the dust mite allergy...

Those who suffered rhinitis and were allergic to an assortment of agents like house dust mites, cat, grass and birch were 3.5 times more likely to develop asthma later on compared to those who suffered no allergies nor rhinitis.
