I'm over weight can i ask for topaz from my doctor to help control my weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Topaz: Are you talking about topamax (topiramate)? This is an antiseizure and migraine medication that has some weight loss property. The drug is not fda approved for weight loss but you can certainly talk to your doctor to see if it's appropriate for you. As always, a healthy diet and regular exercise routine is better for weight loss and weight maintenance. Talk to your doctor.
