> I am getting ready to take my first dose of topomax 25mg for mode, headaches does anyone have any advise also is there terriable side effects when you first start?
The only side effect I noticed when I first started taling topamax was because I miscued on the destructions...
I was told to take it in the evenings until I reached half the total dosage, then to start taking it in the mornings... somehow I confused the issue and started with mornings and it made me nauseous...other than that it was not a problem
Some people find that topomax causes problems, but usually because they increase the dosage too quickly or start with too high a dosage...
you are starting low which is good...
stay at that dosage for at least two weeks to give your body a chance to get used to it... if need be wait a third week before moving up to 50 mg....
strength for the day
