I'd like to hear anyone's experience regarding topomax for weight loss. My pdoc gave me a script about a month ago. I tried it for a couple of days, it made me very tired. So I stopped. I was hesitant about using it for weight loss only anyway. However, as I continue to gain weight I am exploring alternatives and may give it a longer trial. He wants to start me at 25 at bedtime and go up to 100mg eventually. As some of you may have read, I am also considering trying wellbutrin to assist with weightloss and sexual side effects of effexor. I currently take 150 mg of effexor xr. I read some old posts. Anyone out there with any success on topomax or are the weight loss side effects short lived? Thanks for any input! I think I might try topomax and then wellbutrin if the topomax is unpleasant for any length of time.
