Memantine for the Treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder

I recently came across a study on the use of Memantine for the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Memantine is a medication typically prescribed for Alzheimer's disease, but researchers are exploring its potential benefits for individuals with ASD.
