Topirate is not indicated for the treatment of anxiety. Please consult your doctor before taking the medicine.

Can Topirate be used in children?

Yes, Topirate is used for seizures in children more than 2 years of age. However, because of the lack of any reports, this medicine is not recommended to be used in children for migraine.

I am taking valproic acid for fits. Will Topirate interfere with the working of valproic acid? Can this combination be taken?

Topirate does not interfere with the working of valproic acid, but it increases the risk of getting excess levels of ammonia in blood (hyperammonemia). Increased levels of ammonia in blood can be dangerous and may cause difficulty in thinking, remembering information or solving problems. It may also decrease your alertness and make you feel very sleepy with low energy. Immediately inform your doctor if you notice these symptoms. It is important to know that, in rare cases, Topirate alone can cause hyperammonemia.

Since I have started using Topirate people are saying that I have lost weight. Is it because of Topirate or something else for which I should get investigated?
