In reply to Topamax Experiences?, posted by Kingfish on January 4, 2001, at 7:29:48
> Hi! I've posted a few times and wanted to check in and see if anyone else has had success with Topamax. I've taken it for about two months. At first the side effects were terrible but they've subsided and it seems to be helping tremendously. I'm up to 100 mg a day and 40 mg of Celexa.

Kelly:I've been taking Topomax for about 10 days now at what I perceive to be a quite miniscule dose of 25mg per day at bed time. This was added to 20mg of Celexa and a very slight bit of T4 (12.5mcg). I too have experienced significant side effects. I have developed an itchy rash on my extremeties, although that finally seems to be fading. I have no stability whatsoever yet - I realize, though, that the dose is extremely small and I've only been on it for about two weeks, and no it seems like I'm starting to experience significant drowsiness/fogginess in the mornings. I have also developed a few headaches. Hopefully, as you have found, this will all subside, and I will start having good results. How, specifically has it helped you?
