The Hunt for an Autism Drug (Namenda)

Sounds interesting....That was a really good article. My husband was actually reading Business Week this morning and showed me the article and I said "hey, that's the lady I told you about!"

 We looked into the trial study mentioned, but my son doesn't qualify unfortunately.  This drug sounds interesting...my 13 yr old can't remember anything unless it feeds is compulsive traits....school is really tough and MATH is his worst subject....my son is very verbal but struggles so much with social cues....

I just put a call into the psychiatrist....

I will keep you posted!!!

I couldn't access the articles - what was the "gist" of it.  My son was on Namenda.  No big upside and side effects.
