The FDA has removed a warning from its website about the risks of unproven therapies that claim to treat autism. The site warned consumers about bogus "cures" promoted by vaccine skeptics and alternative health groups. It was withdrawn at the end of 2025, along with other older articles, a spokesperson for the Department of Health and Human Services confirmed. The spokesperson did not specify which other sites were removed or whether the FDA still considers these treatments unsafe. The original site explained autism, listed FDA-approved treatments to manage symptoms, and warned of the significant health risks of unproven practices. Despite evidence of the risks and lack of evidence for these methods, the site was taken down.
