Answers:
Not all autistic children take medications. My daughter is autistic and does not.
There is no drug that directly treats autism as a syndrome. There are, however, a variety of drugs that treat selected symptoms that may or may not be part of a particular individual's autism. For example, some individuals with autism are extremely anxious, and thus may be prescribed an antidepressant such as Zoloft or Prozac. Others have serious behavior issues and receive a medication like clonodine. For some autistic children, medications generally prescribed for ADHD are helpful in improving focus.
