Topiramate is used to prevent and reduce the frequency of migraine attacks, treat some types of epilepsy, and control seizures, whether used alone or with other medications. It may sometimes be prescribed as part of obesity treatment to improve weight control, especially if the problem is related to other health conditions such as diabetes.
Topiramate can be used to treat mood disorders or eating disorders, but this depends on the doctor's instructions. This medicine should be taken according to the dose prescribed by the doctor and any additional recommendations should be taken into account to avoid possible side effects.
