I just picked up my prescription for Topamax, and there was a nice little note from the pharmacist informing me that I need to use a back up form of birth control to my bc pills. My doctor didn't mention anything about this!! But sure enough, after doing a little research it looks like this drug can reduce the efficacy of the pill. That sucks! My husband isn't so excited about it, either, but he said he'd rather I was happy, stable, etc. Has anyone NOT used another form of birth control and had "problems?" With my screwed up brain chemistry, I definitely should not be procreating!!
