Is Depression A Side Effect Of Phentermine And Topiramate?
I ve been prescribed phentermine (I ve taken before) and topiramate to help jump start weight loss-curb the desire to eat. Reading online the topiramate treats seizures which I do not have. I started this drug and noticed A little depression. Is this a side effect? Do I need to give the combination time to work together?
