Tratamiento biomédico y suplementos alimentarios para el tratamiento del espectro autista. [Biomedical treatment and diet supplements for the treatment of the autism spectrum disorder] Buenos Aires: Institute for Clinical Effectiveness and Health Policy (IECS). Informe de Respuesta Rápida N° 261. 2012 Authors' objectives To assess the available evidence on the efficacy, safety and issues related to coverage policies for the use of biomedical treatment and food supplements in patients with autism spectrum disorder. Authors' conclusions "Biomedical treatment" has not been reported in the scientific literature as an entity in itself. When individually assessing its components, the evidence found is not enough to endorse the use of restrictive diets and/or nutritional supplements as part of the routine treatment of the autism spectrum disorder. Both the clinical practice guidelines and health coverage policies do not endorse the use because they consider them as experimental.
