The hairloss is a side effect of the Topamax, no doubt. And possibly the loss of appetite. From my experience w/it, it kills it completely. If I had hair loss, however, I would go off it. Not everyone gets hairloss...I didnt on higher doses than you. Do you take it for migraines? Seizures?
Good luck and don't alter your medication until you talk to your doctor. Topamax needs to be tapered, or so I'm told.
