Preliminary studies of its effect on certain autism symptoms have been too small to show whether it even works on those. https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N3521OO/#:~:text=The%20U.S.%20National%20Institutes%20of%20Health%20%28NIH%29%20and,any%20non-approved%20medication%20to%20treat%20ASD%20%28here%29%2C%20%28here%29.
