What treatments are available for Down Syndrome
There is no known cure for Down syndrome, but many treatments can help to control the symptoms of the disorder. Early intervention is common, where young children with Down syndrome are involved in a range of programs to encourage intellectual development. Many schools often offer programs for children also. Other therapies also include physical therapy, to develop motor skills, speech therapy, and emotional therapy. Although some people with Down syndrome take drugs to help improve brain activity, this is not common
