> I am taking Topamax 25mg 2x's a day and I have been taking it since mid January. I have lost over 35 pounds. I started out on a diet and then I stopped counting calories and continued to loose the wieght. I am extremly happy with the results of the weight loss, this is an extra perk for me. The med has done wonders for me along with Prozac and Trileptal and thearpy. My life has never been better. I suffer from Bipolar. Hope this gives some of you something to look forward to. Believe me, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I no longer live with handcuffs on, I am free and happy......
Camie,
This is wonderful! Great that you are getting weight loss from such a low dose of Topa. I am wondering if you're getting synergy from the combination of meds that is helping with the weight loss. Most people would not have weight loss with just 50 mg of Topa per day. Maybe some of the people on the board who are sophisticated about pharmacology could comment on this.
