Not sure your ?: Topamax (topiramate) can lower the effectiveness of some contraceptives particularly the ones that suppress ovulation. You need to discuss your concerns with your doctor. A second form of contraception is recommended while on topamax (topiramate) and some oral contraceptives to reduce the chance for pregnency
