Don't you just love the news these days?
I have just read, with some considerable bemusement, that this particular anti-diarrhoea medication MIGHT "counteract biological processes underlying ASD" by binding to our μ-opioid receptors - you know, the ones normally affected by heroin, morphine and other opioid drugs. This is news worthy because it MIGHT impact our "core symptom" of "social communication deficits." Who knew!?! I wonder if it will stop us getting the sh**s too?
So it is probably very simple after all everybody - although "further work" will be required to test this hypothesis! [gosh, I love how they keep it balanced.]
I just thought I would lob this red meat into the arena at stupid-o-clock in the morning to give me time to beat a hasty retreat before the lions wake up. I was never here!!
LOL I've just googled it too and came across an article which said immodium may help with core autism symptoms. You know, the over the counter drug. Who knew it could be that simple!? They tested it on mice with social deficits?!
It might stop actual diarrhea but not verbal diarrhea
Yeah, I take it to regulate the IBS I developed. Does naff all for my ASD
Had plenty of 'runs' in my life can't say I felt less autistic for taking immodium, lol
