my daghter which is now 5 about 2 years ago was weaned off of topamax she was taking 100 miligrams in the morning and a 100 miligrams at night it took about a month and a half to wein her off.she was also taking keppra and still is but when they were taking her off the topamax i didn't notice anything different about her.i think they should have had you take a half dose in the morning and full dose at night for one week and than the following week take the other half dose away.but than a year later they put her back on topamax because the keppra by itself was not working now she takes topamax,keppra trileptal and ativan.and than she takes vivance for adhd.if you want to chat or have any more questipns my e-mail is sbtn1260@aol.com brenda
