What treatment options are available?


There's no treatment for AWS. If you or your child experiences symptoms, the best way to handle them is to rest and wait for them to pass. It's also important to reassure yourself or your loved one that the symptoms aren't harmful.
Treating what you and your doctor suspect is the underlying cause for AWS episodes may help prevent an episode. For example, if you experience migraines, treating them may prevent future episodes.
Likewise, treating an infection could help stop the symptoms. If you and your doctor suspect stress plays a role, you may find that meditation and relaxation can help reduce symptoms.
