my best friend was on topomax for a while. she was really sleepy and not hungry she ended up losing about 50 lbs. once they got the dosages correct she was fine most of the side affects went away even though she still has a small appetite.

I am currently taking Topamax and it's messing with my short-term memory some. So far it has had no effect on my appetite and after about 6 months, we're still working on the right dosage to get my headaches completely under control. Drowsiness has been a problem so I take it at night.

Yup! I HATE that stuff! It makes everything taste terrible. I had awful leg cramps every day. I couldn't eat anything because it tasted so bad and I felt nauseous. Also, the migraines it was supposed to prevent did NOT go away.

My girlfriend takes it, she hasn't had any problems other than the fact that it doesn't really take her headaches away.

My friend/co-worker nearly dwindled away, losing so much weight she looked sick.
