Medication for any PDD is controversial at best, and indications are that it may be damaging to the child. "Quack" cures are a blanket statement with no useful specificity for parents with kids with this condition. Not suprisingly, this was added by an anonymous editor. --Leifern 20:30, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

There is a mention under 'Medication' that anticonvulsives may be used to treat seizures caused by the disorder, but seizures don't actually seem to appear on the list of symptoms. What gives? -Toptomcat (talk) 05:02, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dupe article

See the history for Child disintegrative disorder. This is offtopic, but I hardly ever newpage patrol, and I saw that article like three days before WLU mentioned it in a totally unrelated talk page. What are the odds?

(Well actually the odds are probably pretty good when you consider I've edited ~4,000 different articles and factor in the birthday effect. But it was cool.) <eleland/talkedits> 05:34, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
