I am on 50 mgs of topimax and on nexplanon , will this affect the nexplanon , majorly , i'm very worried?

Specializes in Pain Management

You should be,: because topamax (topiramate) will decrease the level of nexplanon by altering drug metabolism and you may become pregnant. Talk to your doctor for medication adjustment. Good luck.
