Many parents report that the use of psychotropic medications benefit SMS individuals with respect to stabilizing mood swings, decreasing anxiety, increasing attention and/or decreasing hyperactivity. However, no single regimen shows consistent efficacy among the majority of persons with SMS.

Dogs with aggression/behavioral problems are not looking at the world the way a normal dog does. They are unable to tell the difference between what they see as a possible threat and a real threat, or are unable to react appropriately. Behavior modification means changing the problem behavior through changing the dog's attitude. Serious aggression or behavior problems should be addressed by someone with proper training to deal with these issues.

Research to determine the underlying cause for this disrupted sleep cycle has only just begun. Therapeutic management of the sleep disorder in SMS remains a challenge for physicians and parents. Reports of therapeutic benefit from melatonin suggest general improvement of sleep without major adverse reactions.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an approach that was first developed in the late 1960's and early 1970's to treat neuro-typical people who were suffering from depression or anxiety. The assumption behind it is that, for all people, cognitions (thoughts, beliefs and perceptions) profoundly affect how they feel and behave. CBT teaches a client how to recognize and modify maladaptive thoughts, beliefs and perceptions which then results in positive changes in mood and behavior.

Cholinesterase inhibitors slow the breakdown of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter involved in thinking and memory. Alzheimer's disease causes several brain abnormalities. One of them is a progressive decrease in the acetylcholine neurotransmitter (brain messenger) system functioning. It's as though an engine — in this case the brain - is being starved of fuel and not firing all cylinders. Cholinesterase inhibitors increase acetylcholine and permit more neurotransmission.

Keeping a seizure record can also be useful for diagnosis and following the effects of new treatment.
