Could Topomax Be Causing Kidney Stones?

I currently take 150 mg of topomax daily. Have been for several years. I recently have had a terrible time with kidney stones. 4 in the past 2 weeks. One 5mm, 3mm, 6mm, and 8mm which had to be removed by surgery. Could the topomax be causing my stones?

Yeah topamax can cause kidney stones but there might be some other causes for it like Increased calcium levels so you should analyse the stones and get through check up
