Great question! Many parents explore alternative therapies for autism when conventional options don’t fully meet their needs. Research shows up to **95% of families** with autistic children have tried complementary therapies like sensory integration, art therapy, or dietary changes ([Source](https://www.achievingstarsther....apy.com/blog/autism- While some find benefits—such as improved sensory processing or behavior—experts caution that not all alternative treatments are evidence-based. For example, **Risperidone** and **Aripiprazole** are FDA-approved for certain ASD symptoms, but alternatives like supplements or specialized diets lack strong scientific backing ([CDC](https://www.cdc.gov/autism/treatment/index.html)). Always consult a healthcare provider before trying new therapies to ensure safety and effectiveness. Hope this helps!
