What Experts Say

Topiramate calms excessive electrical activity in the brain through several actions, which helps both to prevent seizures and to reduce the frequency of migraine attacks. It is used for epilepsy and as a preventive, not for treating a migraine once it has started.

Doctors usually start at a low dose and increase it slowly to reduce side effects such as tingling, drowsiness or difficulty concentrating. It is taken regularly every day for ongoing protection.

Drinking plenty of water lowers the small risk of kidney stones, and the medicine should never be stopped suddenly, as this can trigger seizures. Any eye pain or sudden vision change should be reported urgently.
