that's issue number one. issue two is that in 2008 the fda approved the use of conditions for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and the agitation and aggression associated with autism. so some of it has to do with the medications getting fda approval so doctors and patients then feel a little bit more comfortable taking the medications. the third reason i think has to do with the rise in number of kids being diagnosed with autism. as there has been a rise in the number of kids meeting the criteria for the diagnosis, this is a medication that can be offered in some cases to help them. >> so this is a drug that is recognized as a good treatment for autism? >> as a potential treatment for the agitation and aggression associated with autism. >> what are the risks to children who perhaps don't have as well a describable illness. what is the risk to giving it to
