Guest guest Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 Hi , We flew our daughter to New York to visit with Dr. Harold Levinson who is the doctor who has used this inner ear-cerebellar approach for a while. He has been treating kids for many years with meclizine and antihistamines -- with about an 80% success rate if the kid is having typical dyslexic problems/some nontypical. Levinson says he can help autistic kids but they are different. I think it is a matter of definition. He helped my daughter who was later labelled autistic spectrum. We still give the medicines (OTC) he recommmended and my daughter has never regressed. Dr. Levinson has put out many books and several papers on this topic. You can go to his website-- www.dyslexiaonline.com. The supplements he recommends are ones that many of us use for our children. Here are some: DMAE Lecithin GIngko Piracetam (Like Vinpocetine) Here are the key ones though: Meclizine (Bonine is a brand you see a lot) Antihistamines--Benadryl, etc. If you need more antimotion medicine--Marazine (OTC) Hope this helps. in Salt Lake City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
