Topamax has made me HUNGRY!!!!!

Wed, 04/12/2006 - 16:46
I've been on 100 mg's for 9 days now and the sz's are way down and there are no other side effects but I am STARVING all the time. Not sure If I've lost any weight cause I won't weigh myself. Two weeks ago I was 285 so I have no problems if the Topamax causes me to lose wieght.

Hi, I am on 2 different meds and I went up to 203. I am 5'9" so I had a belly. I decided to loose weight. I now weigh 166.5. Just watch what you eat and eat small meals. Good Luck. NaBox
