Hi Niki. I've taken both for migraines, and unfortunately had to quit both due to side effects. But,.,.,.,
Topomax was very bothersome, due to the mental dulling i experienced, and the memory problems. It did help the migraines, and improved my sleep greatly. But in the end, wasn't worth it. I had school and presentations to give.
Zonegran was great, but i think i had an allergic reaction. It was working great, but i developed horrible stomach pains and indegestion, even landed me in the E room one night.
The day i quit it, it went away.
All in all, I loved the zonegran, and i am probably a very small minority who react like that.
For what it's worth.Good luck,
Brian
