In reply to should I try topomax with Paxil?, posted by Robs2222 on April 1, 2003, at 22:00:56
Hi all! I've been taking Topomax for 3 months now, with Wellbutrin and Prozac. Taking the Topamax strictly for weightloss. 3 weeks ago my physician upped my dosage again, from 100mg to 150. I had asked if this would be OK, after reading several of the posts which read "150 was the magic number for weightloss." Since upping the dosage 3 weeks ago I'm 8 pounds down :) From 235lbs to 227lbs. This has also included adding exercise into my daily routine, and eatting healthy. I'm definately having to make lifestyle changes, but the Topomax makes it so much easier. For me, Topomax takes away the cravings for food, or at least diminishes them. I have to remind myself to eat! And, for this big girl that's just unheard of :)
As far as side effects go, the only one I have, is tingling in the extremities from time to time. Not really a big deal, just a nusiance.
Good luck everyone~ FloridaOT
