[QUOTE="--Eleanor--, post: 66143, member: 3620"] My son also is on medications for ADHD--but certainly not all kids with autism also have ADHD symptoms. As far as I know, the only drug in the US that has actually been approved for use specifically for autism is risperdal. Lots of other stuff gets prescribed anyway, though. That is stuff to treat symptoms. Biomedical approach (DAN doctors)seeks to actually cure autism using diet, supplements, and various forms of alternative medicine. [/QUOTE]
