Lymphedema / Topiramate Spr Cap 25 Mg

Updated

I have Lymphedema in my both legs and its extremely painful. My Dr. gave me Topiramate Spring Cap 25 MG. Since I've been taking this pill I've LOST ALMOST 100 pounds. Is this Natural? I've tried to read up on the med, but I've never seen anything about the weight loss. I LOVE LOSING THE WEIGHT, BUT I'M A LITTLE WORRIED TOO!!! Can anyone help me?

According to Forbes and a few other webpages, Topiramate is being heavily regarded as a weight-loss drug; much in the same light as Phentermine. More specific details can be found on google, under "topiramate weight loss".

Glad to hear it's been working in your favor though! Are you finding it difficult to keep weight on or maintain a specific weight?

Thanks for the info, and yes ever since I had my first child I started gaining weight. My highest weight was 296.6 and as of today I'm at 205. I'M REALLY PROUD of losing the weight, but it really did worry me too!!!

Yes, actually it has been known to cause weight loss and has actually been tested to see how effective it is at helping and was actually recently approved by the FDA to be used for weight loss in obese people.

Although it is usually prescribed in combination with another medication, but it has been used off-label for weight loss for quite awhile now.

Have you had too much weight loss?
