A member asked:
Do i have to increase topamax (topiramate) dosage for migraines or can i stick to 25mg only? i don't want to keep going up. will it still work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: The recommended starting dose of Topamax (topiramate) is 15-25 at night increasing very slowly. Based upon tolerability and clinical response, additional titration to a higher dose can be attempted at 25–50 mg/day.
