Biomedical Treatments
Biomedical treatments may include pharmaceuticals, but most often biomedical treatments for autism are based on the Defeat Autism Now! (DAN!) or Autism Research Institute approach to autism therapy. Doctors trained in the DAN! "protocol" prescribe special diets, supplements, and alternative treatments. None of these treatments have been approved by the FDA or CDC, but there are many anecdotal stories of positive outcomes.
If you consult a DAN! practitioner, be sure he is a board certified medical doctor. You might also want to take a quick look at this list of doctors.
