Good Day, I have seen all the different side effects and 2 of the ones my neurologist has not been mentioned in the comments I read. He mentioned tingles in hands and feet, plus functioning slower than normal. Has this happened to anyone else? ## The migranes and headaches are almost not there from migranes daily all day to a mild headache maybe once a month. But I do get a bit of tingling in my feet. Still prefer to deal with the tingling than the migranes and headaches

I've been prescribed a 2 week course for the treatment of migraines which consists of 25mg. It will then will be increased to 50 mg if found effective. So now I just started the 25mg course and find an issue that I am constantly hungry and wanting to eaet (which is strange since I thought a side effect would be loss of appetite), and I have a constant light migraine on one side. (Luckily not a severe one which incapacitates me for a few days at a time). And I am also feeling moody (like PMS symptoms), although it isn't that time of the month plus my skin is breaking out pretty badly. Could the Toplep be causing this reaction? ## Have you consulted your doctor? The symptoms you've reported aren't listed as common side effects, and as you noted yourself, loss of appetite i...

Hi I have been taking toplep on and off for a number of years. The one reason I stop taking it is because when I get hot from either sunbathing or at gym it makes me itch all over especially my arms and stomach. I have never heard anyone else complain about this. But I know it's the toplep as a week after I stop taking it the itchiness at gym totally goes away. I'm taking 100mg at night is that perhaps too high? I have never experienced any other side effects. Thanks T. ## Hello, Teresa! How are you? If you're taking this to prevent seizures, then you shouldn't be skipping doses. If you feel that the medication is making you itch, you need to consult your doctor as you may need to switch to a different medication. However, almost all medications will make you more sensit...

A professor from the North has prescribed Duromine, Glucophage 1000mg 2x per day and Toplep to lose weight. What do you guys think about that? I am almost 70 yrs of age and have gained like 7kg after a hip replacement. I need to lose weight again seriously because I have problems with my back/discs that are disintegrating and the extra weight can't do it any good. Please let me know before I buy the stuff. ## Did this work for you?

My husband was on misoline prescribed by the neurologist for is seizures mainly in the right hand took I for 5 months but we only realised now that the measles like rash was 1 of the side effects of that tablet and itching was very bad.Now the Doctor has prescribed toplep 25mg just wondering will this have the same side effect ## Hello, Shireen! How are you? There is a risk of side effects, including a rash, with almost all medications. The only thing your husband can do is try the one that's been prescribed and see how it effects him. If he does get a rash from it, as well, there are others he can try. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, mood swings and weight gain. Is there anything else I can help with?

I'm a bit concerned - Why does the doctor prescribe epilepsy and bipolar medication to treat a migraine patient? Won't that cause a migraine sufferer to actually develop epilepsy or bipolar? Can Toplep med actually cause damage to a migraine patients and is it safe to use? I'm 5 days on Toplep 50mg. It really helps for my headaches, but I'm worried, I definitely don't have bipolar or any other depression conditions. Please help. Should I carry on with the med? ## Because they can sometimes help with conditions other than what they are intended to treat and it is okay for a doctor to prescribe a medication for off label uses. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood swings, headache, and weight changes. Has it help...

My dr changed my epilepsy medication to toplep. For past two weeks I am suffering of severe anxiousness and pressure on top of my head. I was never an anxious person. I asked him to change the med but he rather added prohexal and my situation is getting worse. What must I do?!

I cant stand the hideous side effects of any of the other bipolar drugs anymore .I take 450mg lithium now. Hoping topamax can work . ANYONE ON TOPAMAX? DRS DONT WANT TO USE IT. ## Topamax, which contains the active ingredient Topiramate, is an anticonvulsant. Some have used it to treat BiPolar disorder, but it is not approved for such uses, which is probably why most doctors do not want to prescribe it.
