v...not an idiot at all...always a great sign to express interest.
this is all very new...topamate isn't approved for this usage yet....the shrinks are still experimenting with it with their patients.
i've seen it discussed in patients with weight gain from depakote, remeron, zyprexa, lithium,
neurontin. it may be added to their current regimen..or "substituted" for a mood stabilizer that they are already on. has side effects all its own (dizziness, paresthesias, worsening of depression when its main med used, and "topo fog"(feeling stupid in the head)...when used at high dosesheres another site with some scientific info re" weight gain and SSRI's:
