Treatment for Asperger syndrome

Treatment for Asperger syndrome can include educational and social skills training. It may also include behavioral therapy and medication for related conditions.

Treatment for Asperger’s syndrome should be tailored to meet individual needs. Communication and social skills training is usually recommended. Treatment depends on the patient’s level of adaptive functioning. A high IQ will bring a better prognosis than a below-average one. Treatment focuses on the three main symptoms: poor communication skills, obsessive or repetitive routines, and physical clumsiness.
