Epilepsy affects millions of people across Pakistan, and neurologists in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, and Rawalpindi prescribe Topmate Tablet 25mg as part of routine seizure management. Many patients start on this lower dose before their doctor adjusts the strength based on response.
Doctors usually begin treatment at a low dose and increase it gradually over several weeks. This step-up approach reduces the risk of dizziness and tingling in the hands and feet.
Topiramate can affect memory and concentration in some patients, so regular follow-up visits matter. Blood tests and eye exams may be recommended during long-term therapy.
