Nooo not really, like none of the meds directly treat autism, but some can treat problematic symptoms or comorbidities. I take hella stimulants for comorbid ADHD and then a mood stabilizer because autistic burnout makes me severely depressed. Some autistic people take antipsychotics for anger as well.
