Asd

Hi just wondering why did they never have a medication that can ease the traits of asd .

  • "Why is there no medication to treat autism?

    Although at any given time there are hundreds of ongoing clinical trials testing drugs to treat autism, there are many reasons why none have been proven effective. Autism is a heterogeneous disorder. It isn’t caused by a single factor like a bacteria or even a single gene. It’s a complex condition that has been linked to myriad genetic changes, as well as a variety of environmental factors. In addition, symptoms and the degree of their impact vary widely, giving rise to the now-famous quote, “If you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism.” "
