A nasal spray could become a ground-breaking new treatment for autism that has already shown increased levels of responsiveness and awareness from trial patients.

A synthetically made version of oxytocin, also known as the 'cuddle hormone', will allow individuals with autism to become more social and has proved to have incredible results.

Professor Adam Guastella from the University of Sydney's Brain and Mind Centre, who is leading the project, has said trials had proved to be extremely promising so far.
