Hi there

i am new to this site, I have just started topiramate, I am on 100mg at the moment and am just starting to increase it with a view of going up to 200mg, I think that it is the best thing I have ever had for my migraines, and the only problem I have is the tingling in my feet which I am willing to put up with. I have developed late onset asthma though and would like to know if it is a coincidence or if anyone else has had a similar problem since being on the tablets???? I really don't want to stop taking them as they have saved my sanity, but I am having such a problem with my breathing - can anyone help with this.

Many thanks

kim

Topamax And Asthma

I do not have a solution but I want you to know that you are not the only one that has experienced the same thing. I have asthma as well and have noticed that it has been increased since the topamax. I am currently waiting a doctors apt. to see what can be done.
