Brief Summary  

Autism is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental condition manifesting in early childhoo The abilities and needs of people with autism vary. While some can live independently , most of them will have severe disabilities and require lifelong care and support .According to WHO, it is an emerging global concern with 1 in 160 children diagnosed with autism. In India ,1 in every 88 children is diagnosed with Autism. It is approximately four times more common in males than females.

At present,no  medications  are established  to  treat its core  symptoms. Risperidone and Aripiprazole are the only FDA approved medications currently used,  targeting the irritability seen with this diagnosis. Moreover, Children and adolescents with autism appear to be more susceptible to adverse effects with these medications.The line of treatment, commonly used are speech therapy, psychotherapy, occupational therapy, behaviour training and dietary modification. These treatments  are  time  and staff  intensive.Because of all the above reasons, there is a need to find a new approach and modality for Autism . In Autism ,the brain and components of the brain are affected . Available evidence suggests that around 21-70% of children  with autism have gastrointestinal symptoms. This attributes to the concept of gut brain axis.

In Ayurveda, the exact correlation is not yet clearly identified. Autism can be understood under the concept of Unmada.A defective digestive and metabolic function is postulated as the root cause of Unmada 

In this study, the drugs are taken from the Aparajitha yoga mentioned for Sarva manoroga, by Acharya Sushrutha [8].By virtue of the mode of action of Nasya , we can expect a positive effect on the brain. With this hypothesis, we are administering the Jatamamsadi Taila Nasya in this study.In this study we are administering  Hinguvadi ghrita orally  to address the gastrointestinal symptoms
