migraine prevention
"I was on Topamax for about a year. I didn't notice any major side effects at first. I was loving the weight loss (didn't consider that a bad one). It did help decrease the frequency of my migraines. Unfortunately I started noticing that I was having trouble remembering things. I was feeling like an idiot and was back in school so it was not a good combination. I wasn't in school when I started on this medication so I didn't realize how much it was affecting me."
