Can anyone who experienced hair loss with topamaxTopamax Topamax sprinkle tell me how long it took for your hair to stop falling out after discontinuing the medication. I have been off topamaxTopamax Topamax sprinkle for 3-1/2 months and am still experiencing the hair loss.
I too have now been off TopamaxTopamax Topamax sprinkle for 4 months and still have an incredible amount of hair loss/breakage.
It was prescribed to me for migraines. I had wt loss, memoryMemory loss Mental status tests loss, confusionConfusion Delirium, feelings of overwhelm/couldn't handle "life" as well while on TopamaxTopamax Topamax sprinkle, also had tingling hands and feet, then once I was off the med b/c of all of those side effects...that's when the hair loss began. I'm not sure when the breakage/loss will cease. *****I would not recommend this med to anyone. I wish I never took it.*****
omg!!! I finally figured out that after a year of topamax for mood disorder, that was the cause but it's still falling out like mad after a month off and i don't have alot of hair to begin with! I need someone would tell me how long it'll be before it stops because i won't date and i'm so self conscious. i own a salon so the irony's not lost on me. You all are saying it won't stop!!! I will be bald! Why don't they do ******* tests???? I'd rather be crazy than bald. How do we spread the word? I was excited about being thin and less crying but maybe we are meant to be emotional because of our hormones! I want to put the doctors and drug companies on topamax and watch them go bald.
