Patient summary
Topiramate 25mg, 50mg and 100mg film-coated tablets, used in the management of epilepsy and migraine prophylaxis. It acts on several channels at once.
Mechanism of action
Topiramate works through multiple mechanisms: it blocks voltage-gated sodium channels, enhances GABA activity (an inhibitory neurotransmitter), and antagonizes glutamate receptors to suppress neuronal hyperexcitability.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Fetal risk identified; avoid. Breastfeeding: Excreted in milk; monitoring required.
Topamax contains topiramate, an anticonvulsant used in epilepsy and in migraine prophylaxis. It comes as a film-coated tablet in 25mg, 50mg and 100mg strengths. The originator company is Janssen-Cilag.
Topiramate acts at several sites: it blocks voltage-gated sodium channels, enhances GABA activity and antagonises glutamate receptors, which reduces neuronal hyperexcitability. It is taken to prevent migraine, not to relieve pain once a migraine has begun. Topiramate has been linked to a risk of birth defects, so it is avoided in pregnancy. Stopping it suddenly can cause severe seizures, even in someone who has never had one.

Is the Topamax here the brand version?
No. Topamax is the original brand from Janssen-Cilag; we use the name so you can tell which medicine it is. What we send is a generic with the same active ingredient (topiramate) at the same dose, usually a well-known Indian branded generic. Which brand you get depends on stock.
How fast does Topamax work?
Topiramate usually kicks in within 2 to 3 hours, and the effect tends to last around 20 to 30 hours. Everyone is a little different.
Which medicines don't mix with Topamax?
Topiramate can interact with valproate, phenytoin and carbamazepine. Before you start Topamax, let your doctor or pharmacist know everything else you take.
