Our son is autistic and becoming increasingly violent and aggressive. We have tried him on every prescription drug available but none have worked and we don't like giving him such strong drugs, especially when they are not even approved for use in children. However, we are so desperate to help him that we have tried it all - from every type of therapy to special ed to meds and nothing is working.

We've been reading a lot about mm for children and we have called a few mm doctors around here (orange county) but no one will see a child. His regular doctor wants to try more meds first (risperdol) but we don't want to put him on anymore of those.

Does anyone know a doctor who will see a child and recommend mm. But we also want someone who can tell us how much to give and how often because we don't want to make our son simply stoned. We simply need to try another option or at least get the information straight from a doctor who is open-minded.

Thanks you for any help you can give us.
