Common Autism Medication Is Ineffective For Repetitive Behaviors, Study Finds
June 1, 2009: Citalopram (Celexa), a medication commonly prescribed to children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), was no more effective than a placebo at reducing repetitive behaviors, according to a multi-site clinical trial guided by lead author Bryan H. King, MD, director of child and adolescent psychiatry at Seattle Children"s Hospital and professor and vice chair of psychiatry at the University of Washington School of Medicine. Because citalopram is also prescribed for patients with obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD), these study results may challenge the widely held premise that repetitive behaviors in children with ASD are similar to repetitive behaviors often found in cases of OCD. The study "Lack of Efficacy of Citalopram in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders and High Levels of Repetitive Behavior" was published in the June 2009 issue of Archives of General Psychiatry.

AARP Applauds House Health Care Reform Legislation

AARP Executive Vice President Nancy LeaMond issued this statement following today"s release of a draft health care reform bill in the House of Representatives: "The legislation released by leaders in the House of Representatives provides a great starting point for comprehensive health care reform. "This bill would get us closer to abolishing discriminatory insurance market practices that use a person"s age to block access to health coverage or keep prices too high to make a difference. "The bill introduced by Chairmen Rangel, Waxman and Miller would address two critical priorities for the millions of Americans who depend on Medicare. The House package would help close the prescription drug "doughnut hole," better ensuring that people have access to the medications they need. By fixing the unsustainable system that Medicare uses to pay doctors, this bill not only helps protect patients" access to their doctors, but also puts Medicare on a path to fiscal stability. "We applaud the leadership of the committees and their chairmen, and we look forward to working with them to pass a compressive health care reform package this year." AARP
