You have to very consistent with Topiramate because it doesn't stop pain just prevents the migraine (this is what the doctor told me). You have to give it time to work but if it does, the pain is a 100% gone.
I had pain for a year and then two weeks on Topiramate and I have never had it again. This doesn't seem to be a popular choice on this forum but works well for me.

My neurologists have me on this too. I started small (25mg) but I am now up to 200mg twice a day.. This has helped a lot. But if weather or allergies bad? Forget it. Migraines horrific! Wouldn't wish on worst enemy!! My migraines are days debilitating [emoji15]
I am also on Gabapentin 3600mg daily for my other issues. Helps, but not perfect. I can at least get up. [emoji33][emoji22] Trust me, and like others, there ARE days (like today) I wish I didn't make it. This pain is too much!
