Suggest Treatment For Autism
I have a 19 year old son with autism. he has been throwing up after some of his meals lately. He has a very varied healthy diet and has vomitted more in the last 5 months than he has his whole life. He does occassionally eat non edibles such as paper products What would be the cause of this and what medical professional should we go to?

thanks for your question. well autistic children do follow a pattern. i need to know
if he always has vomittings or not.
if he had any fever or less urine
if he is upset about anything
if he has psin anywhere
his regular caretaker person will know this easily.
also you need to go to developmental pediatrics personnel and occupational therapist...
if vomittings are uncontrolled then use oral ondansetron.
