Psychopharmacological treatment of behavioural problems in Sanfilippo syndrome.

Abstract
The present report illustrates successful use of psychotropic medication targeted at symptom clusters of behavioural disturbance in a 7-year-old girl with Sanfilippo syndrome, a mucopolysaccharidosis. By identifying and targeting symptom clusters, psychotropic medication was prescribed with significant results. This approach to treatment of behavioural disturbance in Sanfilippo syndrome has not been previously described to our knowledge. Caution with regards side effects and interaction of medication is advised.
