Terbutaline and Autism

I have recently run across some information regarding terbutaline and autism. This comes as quite a shock to me as I was given this drug (FDA approved to treat asthma-not preterm labor!) during both pregnancies for pre-term labor. My doctor never disclosed to me that it was not FDA approved and had I known the risks I would have never taken it. This goes to show that you really have to investigate every pharmacuetical and over the counter drug before you take it-regardless of what your physician says. What really upsets me is there has been research done that suggests a correlation but physicians continue to prescribe it. The link to Dr. Kaplan's Interview is below:
