> Has anyone been on topamax for bipolar. What are the pros and cons?

I was on 25mg twice daily for about a month or so a few years back (along with Neurontin). Pros: EXCELLENT sleep. Seemed like anxiety was reduced. Cons: Paresthesias (skin-crawling), and cognitive blunting. This varies a LOT by individual however. There are some that can handle 400mg/day and do math homework. Not me.
