Miriam,

What's a SSRI and what is Celexa?

Thanks,

An SSRI is a Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor. Celexa is one of

various SSRI's. We have had success w/Celexa. Most kids w/Autism/Aspergers

have problems w/the natural process of Serotonin Reuptake causing different

levels of chemical imbalance in the brain and resulting behaviors in the

body. An SSRI does the job their brain is not doing and extreme behaviors

are modified and the person is able to be more productive. It is very

effective w/Obsessive Compulsive Behaviors like moving furniture.
