[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 639504, member: 15473"] Topamax was originally invented for depression but was then used for migraines once they realized it helped that. Now they have combined it with one of the original ingredients of phen/fen. I'm not sure which and they call is Qsemia (I guess I didn't check that fact). So now it is a part of a diet pill. The major side effects that people complain about are tingling, a little bit of spaciness, weight loss, and it makes carbonated drinks taste funny. I took it years ago for depression without much help but they are putting me back on it now for migraines. I start low and then add pills until I reach the max dose. I don't know the strength yet since I start tomorrow but the plan is to increase up to two twice a day. Before I hated it because I couldn't drink my diet coke which was a severe addiction. Now I don't drink soda anymore so I am hoping it won't be an issue. [/QUOTE]
