A member asked:

Can taking topamax (topiramate) and lamectil together cause nerve pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Combination: Actually, a drug combination treatment approach may prove more efficacious than single drug treatment. Both drugs are typical for neuropathic or "nerve" pain. The side effects of using both drugs together would be compounded and should be considered when prescribed together.
