Every person is different with medication. I have been taking this medication since 2019 for another health issue. My dosage is at 200 milligram a day twice a day but I have no side effects at all and feel nothing as far as help to my migraines.

I've been on it 2 years now. It does lessen the severity of the migraine. However I do notice more forgetfulness.

My legs started feeling like i had blocks attached to them. I was also numb from my waist down while on it.

It didn’t help very much. I lost weight on it.

I'm on Topamax and it doesn't seem to help much and cause issues with memory
