James, As Dr. Lavid said, there are no FDA approved medications for stuttering at this time. However, some people have found success with various medications or combinations of medications which their medical professionals prescribed for their specific symptoms. This off-label use dictates that an individual works closely with their own medical provider in a attempt to determine what is best for them based on their own unique presentation. Finally, pharmacological management will get better with time but it will most likely always be used in combination with other therapeutic activities. Best of luck. Joe
