thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....

first of all, topiramate is an antiepileptic or anticonvulsant drugs and primarily used to treat epilepsy...some use it in migraine prophylaxis and cluster headache...
your history is not very clear so i dont know exactly what problems you were having so that your doctor prescribed you this...

however the side effects are mainly minor like nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, tingling and numbness, sleepiness etc....
it will be better if you visit your doctor for further queries.....

hope this was helpful....
regards
