I just started topamax Friday and am taking 25 mg a night (for migraines). So far I had relatively little side effects I am so excited to say, and was expecting a lot after reading about it. The only thing I noticed is I don't want to drink much anymore (alcohol that is, but I want a LOT of water!) and don't crave food at all which is great, because i ate out of depression and gained weight from anti-depressants and depression. So to not want to eat as much or drink alcohol? WOW! But the doctor didn't talk about changing the dose and a lot of people here talked about going up - does anyone see a great difference in side effects, bad or good, as dosage increases? I just read about Zonegran here which I never heard about either, and am wondering how well that works. Hmmmm. Thanks everyone, i love this site.
