Does Topamax Have Any Side Effect Like Stomach Problems?

I take topamax and wondered it if could cause stomach problems or breathing problems. I have been having trouble breathing lately but it could be due to pollen. Also, have had gallbladder issues in the past (had it removed); however, sometimes still have that paid in the upper middle of my stomach (right under breasts). Is that where your liver is?

Diabetologist 's  Response
Topamax (topiramate) can cause abdominal pain in some patients. But Topamax is highly unlikely the reason behind your breathing problems. As suggested by you, it would more likely be an allergy to pollen.
I would recommend you to consult your physician if the abdominal pain is sever and ask for an alternative. For breathing problems, do consult a pulmonologist.
I hope the above information helps you. Thanks for writing into healhtcaremagic. Have a wonderful day. Take care.
