I took topomax for a while and I had to go off it because I gained so much weight. My doctor said that this is a reaction to the topomax that happens in some cases, not all. It's probably the topomax that is doing it. The problem is that it affects your ability to feel full and you end up snacking more or eating bigger portions without realizing it. I also found that it affected my taste.
Hi. I take 125mg/day for migraines and have more trouble than ever keeping my weight off *BUT* there is always a lot more to the story than that.
What is your story? lol....in other words, what are you doing/trying to do to lose or what were you doing before to maintain your weight?
I used to weight over 200 lbs and have kept my weight in the "normal" range for 5 years now, even though I struggle keeping it where I *wish* it was to be "perfect." I would be happy to help you in any way that I can - especially since I, too, take topamax.
not very likely, when u read this drug or that drug sometimes seems to have a possible side effect of weight gain they r talking about 10 lbs.
try a no carb to low carb diet and u will probably loose it all back easily
good luck
