AUSTIN (KXAN) -- A month after President Donald Trump said that taking Tylenol while pregnant causes autism, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit Monday in Panola County court against the companies Johnson & Johnson and Kenvue over the claims.

Kenvue, which makes Tylenol, said it would defend itself in court against the AG's claims, according to reporting from The Texas Tribune.

“We stand firmly with the global medical community that acknowledges the safety of acetaminophen and believe we will continue to be successful in litigation as these claims lack legal merit and scientific support,” the company said, according to The Texas Tribune.

Kenvue and Johnson & Johnson have not yet filed their full responses in court.
