Is naltrexone good for autism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Naltrexone is a very serious medication with a high level of negative side effects and can be addictive. It should be a last resort when treating Autism. Autism has shown significant improvement to dietary changes, behavioral therapy and occupational therapy. It is available for any child through the regional center and their local public school.
