Topamax

My sister has MS. She was recently given Topamax for headaches. Sometimes she still gets severe headaches. Is it ok to take Tylenol with topamax?

I take topamax for seizures, and originally took it for migraines.  I was told I could take my migraine meds for migraines, so I assume Tylenol is fine.  I take Maxalt when I get a migraine.  The doctor also prescribed a generic advil type med.  Of course, I'm just another patient, not a doctor....

Yes, it's ok to take Tylenol. I take Topamax which reduces the frequency of migraines. Sometimes I still get a migraine and tylenol is the only drug I can take in addition.  I also have fibromyalgia and take daily Ultracet - which  also contains acetominophen (Tylenol).
