Thank you for using Telelemedicine via HealthcareMagic.com. I have gone through your case and I can understand your concern. Topaz (Topiramate) is an anticonvulsant that is also effective for preventing migraine headaches. It works by affecting several chemicals in the brain that help to reduce seizure activity and prevent migraine headaches from occurring. Yes, this drug is advisable for children who suffer from migraine (a type of chronic headache). Give it to her as the doctors prescribed. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
