Treatments
There are no drugs that can “cure” ASD. There are a variety of treatments available which aim to improve social and communication skills. Because of the complexity of ASD, there is no one treatment that works equally well for all people with ASD. Some common treatments options are:
| Applied Behavior Analysis interventions | Joint Attention interventions | TEACCH | Pivotal Response Treatment |
Some clinicians may prescribe medications to target certain symptoms.
There are also many controversial treatments.
