Could topamax (topiramate) be causing chest pain and dizziness that are worse when i lie down?

Dr. Ron Jones answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Possible: Topamax (topiramate) has been linked to increased indigestion and to pancreatitis. You should not assume it is the topomax, as this is not a benign drug and the symptoms could indicate something more serious. Report this to your pcp.
