Oh yes, that is one thing you have to be aware of when taking the med. Drink as much water as possible and cranberry juice. It often causes bladder problems.

> I loved Topamax - took it for over a year, lost 35 pounds, looked great, felt like a zombie though. But after a year I started having bladder problems, severe bladder spasms and terrible bladder pain, like my bladder was raw inside. Went to a urologist, etc., nothing worked. I finally stopped taking the Topamax because it always did make me pee a lot. After several weeks the pain and spasms went away. I have tried going back to Topamax several times, but just can't handle the bladder spasms and pain.
