A member asked:
I have tourette's and i can't take paxil (paroxetine) but just prescribed topamax but is there safer option with less side effects?

There are few option: I would need to know what side effects you have with Topiramate and how effective it is. A Low dose of high potency anyipsychotics like haloperidol or risperidone, 0.5mg 2 or 3 x a day is quite effective.
