Topamax for Epilepsy
My son has been taking this medicine for 3 months now. His general condition has improved significantly since taking TOPIRAMAT. Unfortunately, his drinking has been getting worse and worse since taking it. He used to drink up to 3 liters a day. When taking topiramate his drinking volume has reduced to just under 1 liter a day and now he has not been drinking for 3 days. If this does not change, we will unfortunately have to sell TOPIRAMAT again.
Topamax for Depression; Epilepsy; Migraine
After the start of taking Topamax it came pretty quickly to the described weight loss – pleasant – but also to disorientation. Can also be related to previous brain surgery. For the treatment of focal epilepsy and migraine, I can only recommend Topamax. Since SAB with Clip Brain Aneurysm, I have depression that is getting stronger and now being treated with amitriptyline. Now, my brain sometimes runs like a DVD player in fast-forward or I fall asleep at the desk, can no longer assign things, I’m just completely confused. 1 and 2 do not seem to be compatible?

I started with a 25 mg dose and this was increased to 50 mg after 6 weeks. Shortly thereafter, the first side effects have now reached a strength that is unbearable.

Topamax for Epilepsy
My older daughter, 17 years old, has been on Topamax for 2 years, previously on Phenhydan for 14 years (previously on Luminal). The initial target dose of Topamax for my daughter was 125 mg (50 – 0 – 75), after about 2 months we had to increase to 150 mg, then about 175 mg again about a year ago. Until then, she tolerated the Topamax quite well, minor side effects such as uncontrollable laughing fits, occasional muscle tremors, a slight ataxia, and mild sleep disorders but there were already. But she was as good as seizure free. Almost 2 months ago we had to increase again to 200 mg per day (100 – 0 – 100) because the epileptic seizures started to increase again after gaining size and weight. And shortly after this increase began the difficulties: My daughter suddenly suffers from very strong restlessness (completely uncontrollable fidgeting in a wheelchair, while strong loud), massive sleep and drowsiness (up to 3 hours awake at night), besides, it has from now on massive screaming attacks, sometimes not calming for up to an hour, and also extreme mood swings: in one minute she still laughs, in the next minute she screams for no apparent reason. Of course, we do not want to have any seizure freedom at this price, so that we can reduce the Topamax immediately, and then, if necessary, creep in another drug.

Starting with the medication, when I was twelve years old and had two seizures, you diagnosed epilepsy. When stopping the medication, I often had sweats, sleep problems and had trouble concentrating.

Now I start to crawl the drug, take only 50 mg in the evening and drive quite well with it.
