Autism Medications
One out of 88 children in the US, as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, are identified with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Leading experts in compounded medication can cater to the needs of sensitive patients by formulating custom prescriptions that don’t contain gluten, yeast, dye, casein, or sugar.
These compounded medications can be provided as transdermal creams, capsules, suppositories, and suspensions. Highly trained pharmacists will work with your child, you, and your child’s physician closely to understand all needs and formulate the medication, whether it is an antibiotic, chelation agent, or antifungal.
American Integrative Pharmacy (AIP), led by Dr. Neema Yazdanpanah, provides safe and proven compounding medications to patients in Long Beach, Torrance, Los Angeles, South Bay Orange County, Southern California areas, and online nationwide.

Benefits of Working with a Compounder
Compounding pharmacists are helpful in treating patients with sensitivities and dietary restrictions. They can make custom dosage for patients to meet their individual taste and texture preferences. This is done while keeping their specific needs and restrictions in mind. For instance, several patients cannot tolerate casein and gluten.
Compounders can help patients by creating unique dosage forms that avoid offensive taste. These are a few other benefits of working with compounding pharmacists:
- Improve taste with flavors and sweeteners
- Avoid harmful dyes and potential allergens
- Use milling and homogenization techniques for reducing suspension texture
You can make use of topical options as well to avoid textural and flavor issues. Compounded medication gives you the benefit of using highest quality ingredients and the best dosage forms.
Off-Label or Experimental Compounds
These are a few experimental compounds beneficial for autism:
Glutathione
Autism is associated with low levels of antioxidant glutathione. This inhibits the body’s ability to clear toxins and free radicals in a natural way.
Oxytocin
Oxytocin is available as a nasal spray and is linked with improved Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) scores. Oxytocin can also improve the brain’s ability to comprehend speech and mental states during social interactions.
