Hello Lybrate user! yes its very difficult to manage an autistic boy, particularly during his adolescence, because of the hormonal influences. Possibly the doctor may increase the dosage and/may add new meds. Problem behaviors such as restlessness and aggression can be effectively managed by behavior modification therapy. Keep him occupied with structured daily routine. Get appointment through Lybrate if you need more professional help.

Hi thanks for seeking help here. After carefully listening to your history n evaluating the issue we suggests that if your current medication are working well then should be no point of stop them abruptly. But if you are willing to stop them then alternatives are there like counselling ,if any side effects your son is facing due to current medication then can change drugs but that can I say only after detailed evaluation of your history.
