any reaserch is a good thing like Carol Povey, director of the National Autistic Society's Centre for Autism, said but IF these drugs could maybe help its in probably years to come and a lot more research will be needed,what about the long term effects of these drugs when they have finished them if they ever do? there could be other worse side effects, im inclined to think the most atm we can hope from this is the more they reserch it the more they can learn to understand which is the key to knowing the cause, but as carol Povey also said there is more to it than that, its only a small part of the picture and i'd have to agree.
