> Anna, I tried topomax and like every other drug I have tried it made me extremely tired and drugged feeling. Iwas on the smallest dose once a day. I don't think you are suppose to drink alcoholic beverages with it which I have aproblem with because I enjoy a glass of wine or two and maybe a couple of beers. Don't know what the other side effects are. Maybe Cam may know. I am just paranoid about the hair loss. I am not taking the lamictal anymore until I know for sure that it was causing my hairloss. My problem right now since getting off is my mind is muddied or cluttered the thoughts are racing and I can't stop them. Do you ever feel like that? Thank you for responding. Amanda from the lowcountry

Topomax really scares me because of it's effects on cognitive functioning.
I don't experience mania or racing thoughts, I just don't have the energy, and I'm
lethargic. How is Topamax suppose to help in this case?
