Yeah, I think it’s used off label for hunger control. I think it’s actually supposed to be for migraines. I find it to be very helpful. I’m on 100 milligrams and most doctors only prescribe 50 milligrams. But 100 works best.
It’s like benzos though. Some doctors are dead against prescribing it. I don’t know why though. I’ve found it to be helpful with my moods as well. I’ve lost about 20 pounds on it, but I’m not sure how much of that is the topamax or switching from Ativan (which caused bad hunger) to Xanax which decreases my hunger too.
