A member asked:
I've been taking topamax (topiramate) for 2 months and i don't like the side effects . except for the weight loss . can i just stop taking it ?

Maybe : Topomax is used for a wide range of medical conditions. Not knowing the specific condition you've been prescribed this medication, it may not be a good idea to stop taking it on your own without the input of the prescribing the doctor.
