Migraine Prevention
"I have been on Topiramate for just over a year. I have suffered from migraines for more than 30 years and have been on Imatrix and Relpax before. Topiramate was awesome, at first. It reduced the frequency of migraines and kept things really under control. I lost approx. 20 lbs within 4 months of being on the drug (my normal weight is approx. 140 lbs) hadn&#039;t been down to 120lbs since high school so was feeling pretty good about myself. I did have some minor side affects like blurred vision and tingling in my hands that spread to my feet but this was worth not having migraines. More serious problems arose, however, after being on the drug 10-11 months when I developed kidney problems-stones and infections in both kidneys. Warning!"
