Frequently Asked Questions

Does my child have autism? I'm always in doubt.

Unfortunately, the autism label can often be applied to any child who shows differences. The first step is to consult a child psychiatrist experienced in autism, preferably with an ADOS-2 certification and access to an observation room. If your child does not have an autism diagnosis, it will also be important to address and resolve any existing challenges promptly.

Is a child who doesn’t respond to their name definitely autistic?

No, there are many possible reasons for this behavior. If the context of the moment when the child doesn’t respond to their name is not considered, it might appear as a sign of autism. Autism is a condition with clinical complexity and can only be diagnosed through a comprehensive, multidimensional evaluation.

Are medications imported from abroad beneficial for autism?

No, caution is especially necessary. Many products sold as medications are not actual medications. Even if they are, they may still be in experimental stages, effectively turning your child into a test subject. Even for off-label use, there must be scientific evidence or indications in research studies suggesting that the medication is effective for autism.
