> HI, I REALLY NEED TO KNOW OR FIND SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN GIVEN TOPAMAX FOR PANIC DISORDER. THE REASON BEING IS THAT I CAN'T FIND ANYONE, AND I'M KIND OF WORRIED. I'VE ONLY SEEN THAT IT'S BEING USED FOR BIPOLAR AND SEIZURES, AND DEPRESSION. I'M NOT TAKING THE SSRI'S ANYLONGER BECASUE OF THE EXCESSIVE WEIGHT GAIN.......PLEASE...SOMEONE....I'M NOW ON 36MGS OF TOPAMAX, BUT I DON'T FEEL ANY DIFFERENT YET. I'M ALSO STILL TRYING TO WEAN OFF PAXIL WHICH HAS BEEN HELL. I'M FINALLY DOWN FROM 30MGS TO 10MGS WHICH TOOK ME 2.5 MONTHS. THANKS...
I am currently taking Topamax to prevent Migranes, prevent seizures, and to help prevent social anxiety. It has reduced the headaches and seizures but not stoped them and has uneffected the anxiety at all. I am now at 125 mg. I am waiting to go up in dosage. Yes this medicine is suppose to cause weight loss. Yeh!!!! Good luck to You!!
