I just started taking this medication for headaches and am looking for any information on it. Any side effects? Weight gain or loss? Anyone had success with it for headaches? I also am taking Topamax along with it. I have headaches everyday and have tried many different medications and several have seemed to work for me, but unfortunately have side effects that I am not willing to live with such as hair loss with Depakote, heart palipitations with Amitriptlyne, and so on... So, here I go again with another medication. My Dr. said if this one doesn't work, he suggests the "big gun" as he called it. He said he wants me to try an "IVDHD"? or something like that. It's giving me an IV for 3 hours in his office for 2 or 3 days with some kind of medication, that's supposed to work wonders for months. He said people have had great success with this and have this done 2 or 3 times a year. Anyone heard of this? I'm afraid to do it and don't want to. Suggestions? Ginny
