Maybe: See your doctor about the back pain. Some people get kidney stones on topomax.

Generally No: But if you are concerned, stop the medicine and see if your back pain improves. if you are on a high dose of topamax, (topiramate) speak with your doctor about reducing the medicine because if you stop cold turkey you could have a seizure.
