ADD is right brain, autism, often left brain, can be both left and right. The hemispheres in autistic people are more symmetrical than in most brains. Medications for ADD are sometimes used to treat mild cases of autism, with some success. Not ALL cases of autism but many.
It is difficult to make fixed statements since so little is yet known but ADD is almost certainly right-brained. And autism largely left-brained.
