Suggest treatment for poor memory in an autistic
human
My grandson has A typical Autism & recently diagnosed with Bipolar however no tests have been do. I thought there would be a few tests done & maybe a brain scan especially as he (10yrs old ) has a soft spot still on his head also needed to be resuscitated after a bleed from circumcision. He has become very angry & frustrated as he says things don t stay in his head. We are desperate for some help .

Hello, Welcome to Health Care MagicI can understand your concern. Autism is a pervasive developmental disorder of brain and it can't be diagnostic home without proper evaluation of a psychiatrist. He has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and showing poor memory. CT scan is a test that can detect any morphological lesion in brain but it is not used to detect bipolar disorder or autism. The diagnosis of these diseases are made by clinical evaluation only. I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist for treatment of his condition. Medicines like risperidone, sodium valproate can help to reduce aggression of bipolar and autism.For memory problems and poor concentration medicines like piracetam, Memantin can help to improve condition. Consult his psychiatrist for prescription.Thanks
