You are describing a serious side effect. The doctor has to be notified immediately. And your husband will probably be given a different medication. Call the doctor that prescribed the Topamax. Also call the pharmacy where you got the Topamax. The side effects I encountered did not go away during the ten days I was on it. M |

I'm on it for migraine prevention. It has been helpful for that. It is a med I love to hate. I have lost track of how many years I have been on it. I'm on 50 mgs. I was a mess when on higher dosages. I had severe memory loss. Even at 50 mgs. It is tough and I very much miss my former self. I take PS 100 (have mentioned this a lot on this forum), which I get at Whole Foods and it seems to help a little with the memory issues and I'm appreciative. I hope some day in the near future to get down to 25 mgs, fingers crossed.
