My friend from school has a younger brother who is suffering from Tourette syndrome. My dad told me what kind of illness it is. I try to imagine how is hard to live with it. Can somebody tell me something more about Allopathic Treatment for people with Tourette syndrome, please? Thanks!

Most TS patients do not need to take drugs, as their tics do not seriously interfere with their lives. Drugs that are used to reduce the symptoms of TS include haloperidol, pimozide, clonidine, guanfacine, and risperidone. Although there is no cure for TS, many patients improve as they grow older, often to the point where they can manage their lives without drugs.
