In reply to Topamax and weight gain with SSRI's?, posted by Lynne on June 17, 2001, at 1:24:30
> Does anyone think that by adding Topamax to Prozac or Paxil it will help control the weight gain? Does Topamax just make you not think of food all the time?
> Maybe it could be used as a sleep aid too?

> LynneLynne,Topomax is my primary med (along with a small dose of Neurotin at night); since I have taken Topomax, I no longer overeat...I also rarely drink alcohol, even in social situations, which I used to enjoy doing. I find these all to be good side effects. Topomax has not been sedating for me, so I do not consider it a sleep aid..I know others have found it to be the case..it may depend on the dose.
