Medication and dietary intervention can be prescribed to alleviate any or all of the symptoms, which might include diarrhea, pain, constipation, abdominal distension, malabsorption, and growth retardation. Treating autistic enterocolitis does not treat autism as such, but relieving these children of chronic physical pain can make them more available for the therapies that are specific to autism.
