Im currently taking 100 mg topamax (topiramate) if i were to increase to 200mg would i likely lose weight?

Weight loss: Topamax can cause weight loss but is not fda approve for such if used alone even on high doses. Qsymia (phentermine and topiramate) which is a combination of Phentermine and topamax(low dose for both) is approved for weightloss and maintenance.
