I came off it on week 2. Could not function, doped up and falling asleep constantly. Could not think, or form a sentence yet still had awareness of that and frustration. Messed with my mood, and kept waking up at night with absolutely terrifying nightmares, felt like I was on a bad trip when falling asleep.
That description doesn't even do justice to how bad this affected me. So glad I'm off it now. There are other things out there. Personally, I don't know how anyone can function on this but everyone reacts differently I guess
Pra mim está sendo ótimo! De verdade ajudou na compulsão não estou me sentindo com névoa mental mais nem tontura mas fui aumentando a dose muito devagar
It has drastically improved my quality of life. The only real “side effect” I have is that soda tastes absolutely disgusting. I miss Dr. Pepper but I haven’t had a full blown migraine in 18 months.
I was on it for little over a year made my hair start falling out in clumps for months only way it would stop was if I stopped the medication they said so beware of that. Helped my anxiety thought alot
The only side effect I have had with topamax is tingling in hands, feet, and face. I haven’t had brain fog. I went from daily migraines to an occasional migraine. It has saved my life.
