Topamax dosage isn't working anymore
I have suffered from migraines for about 8 years. After finally finding Topamax I was happy with a medicine that seemed to control them. I am currently on 100 mg/day total. All of a sudden I seem to be getting about 2 migraines a week. Is it possible that if my Dr. increases my dosage it will work better?
I have really tried everything else out there and nothing else worked. This was the last option and it worked. I don't want to be back at square one with headaches all the time.
Thanks.
Hi msf!
It is a posibility for your doctor to increase your dosage. It is also a possibility that he/she can add something different into your preventive plan.
There are over 100 preventive options out there, so don't give up!
I recently went through the same thing on Topamax so I know where you are coming from! In my case I had a new diagnosis, but that may not be the same for you. Talk to your doctor, bring up your concerns, he/she should be able to work with you.
Good luck!
