Topamax does tend to cause weight loss, but trust me, this is not the way you want to lose
weight.
Topamax (I was taking it
for bipolar) first of all did nothing
for my moods. I was back in the hospital a few months after first being prescribed this, along with seroquel and ativan for panic and anxiety. That's not what makes this medicine so undesirable though. With each dose increase, I had numbness in my legs and arms. This could continue for as long as 2 weeks after a dose increase.
