*Taken together, our study provides evidence for the feasibility and tolerability of [[Abbreviations|'''transdermal nicotine (TN/TNP)''']] in a small sample of adults with severe [[Abbreviations|'''Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)''']] symptoms and pathological chronic aggression and irritability. | |||
*Our results also suggest that TN may have a beneficial effect on aggression, irritability, and sleep in ASD, though the sample size of this study is too small to make definitive conclusions. | |||
