Sorry Niki, I did realize Topamax was indicated for migraine. Some look at the weight loss as a side benefit of this med. I don't know if there are more options for Migraine. I use this Excedrin Migraine when I get one and it works for me but it contains Acetaminophen which is bad for the liver etc. in the long term. My son's Psy Dr. was quick to suggest replacing his Zyprexa with Topamax to reduce his weight. I would not allow him to do that because of the possible side effects.
