Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Dyscalculia is treated only with the help of specialized computer programs and regular practice of the child. There is no pharmacological treatment for this problem. The drugs have failed to show any significant improvement in the controlled clinical trials.
I hope this answers your query effectively.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
