Hi there! Welcome to NT!
I have taken Tompamax, actually just went off of it since it is not working any longer. I was on it for several years and it helped me a great deal. I was on it for migraines and boy did it help, it cut down the frequency of my migraines drastically. I also have RSD in the right side of my face (one dr thought I had trigeminal neuralgia too). So the Tompamax was to help that as well. The most I took was 175 - 200mg per day, when I just went off of it I was at 150mg per day.

I have seen numerous posts on here about the terrible side effects and people calling it dopamax. Fortunately I did not experience those bad effects in the posts.

The only side effect I had was tingling in my hands/feet when I first went on it or increased the dosage. My neurologist told me to eat something with potassium (like a kiwi) everyday to stop the tingling - it worked!! The tingling was only temporary. It did curb my appetite briefly (unfortunately that didn't last).

I would still be on it if it hadn't stopped working.
