摘要: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an umbrella term for developmental disorders
characterized by social and communication impairments, language difficulties, restricted
interests, and repetitive behaviors. Current management approaches for ASD
aim to resolve its clinical manifestations based on the type and severity of the disability.
Although some medications like risperidone show potential in regulating ASD-associated
symptoms, a comprehensive treatment strategy for ASD is yet to be discovered. To
date, identifying appropriate therapeutic targets and treatment strategies remains challenging
due to the complex pathogenesis associated with ASD. Therefore, a comprehensive
approach must be tailored to target the numerous pathogenetic pathways of ASD.
From currently viable and basic treatment strategies, this review explores the entire field
of advancements in ASD management up to cutting-edge modern scientific research. A
novel systematic and personalized treatment approach is suggested, combining the available
medications and targeting each symptom accordingly. Herein, summarize and categorize
the most appropriate ways of modern ASD management into three distinct categories:
current, promising, and prospective strategies.
