hi..for epilepsy, the medication is already chosen and for hyperactivity also..but autism is a kind of neuro-developmental disorder for which medication do not work..she requires behaviour therapy along with speech therapy..also people with autism may have selective interest in certain activities..so keep nurturing them on if you find any..there are also many autism training institutes..also consult a child psychologist for the opinion..its a difficult journey, but you will definitely get result if you hold on..she will be fine..also social skills need to be learnt..just continue the sessions and don't lose hope..wishing her good health
