Brillia is a homeopathic remedy that is being marketed to autistic and ADHD children. They say its been available for almost 10 years with great success and history supporting its efficacy and safety. What they do not mention is that they have dangerous side effects proven in an independent study. Because it is considered a homeopathic remedy, it is not evaluated by the FDA for safety and efficacy. The FDA is not aware of ANY scientific evidence to support homeopathy as effective.
“Brillia is a unique combination of antibody science and homeopathic formulation. The active ingredient of Brillia is antibodies to the brain-specific S100 protein (S100B). This protein is an important regulator of many different intracellular and extracellular brain processes, e.g. various enzymes activities, calcium homeostasis, communication between neurons, etc. Since almost all mental and neurological diseases as well as temporal stress-induced conditions are accompanied by disturbance of the above-mentioned processes, especially communication between neurons, the normalization of these processes is considered to be a prospective way to treat people with such undesirable conditions. Brillia is an antibody conjugated to the S100B protein and does not alter the concentration of the S100B protein in the bloodstream. Brillia’s efficacy stems from its ability to regulate the activity of the S100B protein and does not alter its concentration. In order for a protein to have an effect in the body, it needs to bind to its target, such as an enzyme. Proteins have very specific conformations that ensure that only the correct protein binds to the correct target molecule. Once the protein correctly orients itself into the active site of the target molecule, this is when the protein causes an effect in the body. When Brillia binds to the S100B protein, the overall shape of the protein is altered, hindering its ability to bind to its target molecule and thereby controlling its activity in the body. In short, Brillia stops the S100B protein from acting in the body by changing its shape, consequently regulating levels of anxiety and hyperactivity.”

We gave our autistic daughter Brillia for a full year. It wasn't cheap. In the end we gave up on it because it had no effect. After that painful disappointment we put our daughter in an art class with a teacher that understood autistic children. Our daughter speaks more and is happier.

Thanks for the review. I was considering Brillia for my adult son with autism. After reading this I will stick with our current approach to calming,/antianxiety with magnesium supplements, sage tea and CBD/CBG 💖

Thank you, I have extreme anxiety and ADD. I was considering buying this product. I am on disability and the cost would have really hurt. The side effects are not worth it. Again thank you.

The cost of Brillia sends up a red flag 🚩 I guess people will believe in it because it’s so expensive! There are so many companies like Brillia looking to capitalize on autism with sophisticated marketing.

Thank you for this infomation. I just finished reading “The Noah Diary” by Jordan Douglas. The real personal diary of an autistic college girl who had searched for an escape from or acceptance of, her autism. This treatment was mentioned in it…she was clinging to its promises…and she discovered falling in true love changed her world.
