Hi,

Yes, it is an anti-seizure medicine. Topamax (topiramate) is an anti-seizure medicine with broad spectrum of action and thus prescribed to treat partial or generalized tonic clonic seizures. I advise you to consult your doctor for choosing an appropriate medication to control your seizure.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
