Weight loss, which was awesome! I also experienced aggitation and fits of strong anger after taking it for about 2 years, "didn't make any sense to me or my Dr. either if your sitting there with a puzzled look on your face! lol I and my doctor both agreed that I had lost enough weight so I'm now off of Topamax! I have no other side effects to report! I wish you luck and you will definitely lose weight taking Topamax! They could market this as a diet pill also, it worked great, and I'm still at my "perfect weight"!
