Yes, I used to take topiramate. I can't say for certain how it will work as a preventative drug because I already had a migraine when I started taking it but it did help lessen the pain to a degree for me. I know that side effects can often be scary but at least for me I didn't have any bad side effects, please keep in mind though that everyone is different and reacts to each medication differently.

Just curious if you decided to take this toprimate. I was prescribed too. My doc says I must take for 2 months before being on another drug. Am scared to be on it have one reoccurring vestibular headache a day. It goes away with Tylenol. Then back next day, etc.

No. Not trying it. I can’t see be fit if I can’t be on long term. Tried beta blockers already. I thank you for feedback! Glad something is working for you!

I tried it for 10 days and went off it. I was not myself,had alot of confusion and dizziness. I applied for Quilipta with Abbie Assist and was approved . It seems to be working g for me and I am grateful to be eligible for it as Topiramate was not a drug I wanted to continue. Good luck,maybe it will work for you,please keep me posted

Been on it since 2014. No issues.
