Also, is there anything that will help with that side effect. Thanks!
Tingling is normal, especially on the peripheral parts of your body, including the tip of the nose, the chin, the ears, around the mouth. Nothing has been shown to be helpful. It goes away once you are off topamax. Some people say it is an acceptable side effect if it works for the migraines.
