What you have to remember, and that my doctor keeps reminding me, is that Topomax is supposed to keep us from binge eating, and is not supposed to be a diet pill. I am up to 300mgs. I have built up such an immunity that I think I even need to go higher, because I have started bingeing frequently again. Are you bingeing, or do you just want to lose your appetite? You have to ask yourself these questions. The answer lies in you as far as losing weight. I went on topomax because I was having painful side-effects of bingeing, and I wasn't even that over-weight, because it was counter-acted with periods of abstinence. There is only so much you can raise your medication. Write back soon.
