MoparGuy1991 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Why did your doctor start you right at 50mg/day? It's usually recommended to start Topamax at 25mg and titrated by 25mg weekly until your final dose. This minimizes side fx. I started at 25mg of Topamax myself and am titrating to 100mg at 25mg/week. So far, only thing I notice is some sodas have a flat taste to them. I took Topamax one time about 1 1/2 years ago, and I tolerated it pretty well. No cognitive problems and minimal side fx except when dose was pushed right from 100mg to 200mg one time!

Jaclyn4238 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Your right I misread my bottle it says to take one pill daily for seven days then take two pills daily so that would be 50 mg the side effects im concerned about are weight gain even though i have read most that say they havent expierenced it and does anyone else have experience with prozac and xanax and weigt gain? just curious also i am taking the topamax and two xanax at night before bed and i am still not sleeping well i am tossing and turning and having trouble falling asleep its ridiculous what could this be from thanks in advance to anyone who replies!!!
