Could be: Topiramate is an atypical seizure medication. It is used to reduce headaches , and it suppresses nerve function. Stopping the med could likely cause the symptoms.

Not for aneurysms: There is no drug for aneurysm treatment. While topiramate may have been given to you for treatment for aneurysm symptoms, a symptomatic aneurysm usually needs a procedure. Visit with the md who gave you the medication to clarify the reason you are receiving it.
