There are drugs that have been shown to improve specific symptoms that can manifest with ASD. These drugs are not always effective but can be part of a wholistic support program (including therapy, school district support, and lifestyle changes). Any of these drugs should only be administered under the careful supervision of a psychiatrist.

I wonder what role inhibitory control plays in the behaviors of ASD. Is it that an autistic person is unable to control their irregular behavior, or is it simply that their perception of the world is different than most neurotypical people?
