Minimal level symptoms and conditions

Manage Topamax Side Effects by Working with Your Doctor to Reduce The Dosage

I have been on Topamax for 9 years and it has been a life saver. I suffer from migraines as well as bipolar disorder so I get the added benefit that it treats both conditions. Since I have been taking Topamax, my migraines have been kept at bay and my mood as been stable. I was initially on a very high dosage - 400 mg/ day - and suffered horrible side effects. With my doctor's supervision we notched the medication down to a the minimal level that would still be of benefit. I am currently on 100 mg/day, and that dosage is sufficient for both my migraines and the BPD mood elevation. I no longer get kidney stones, and while my memory and word recall and mildly affected it it not really palpable. I often see people demonizing this and other meds on internet and I think that is a shame because there are people such as myself who truly benefit from these drugs. I believe the key is to find the right dosage. I have been on many medications over the years and this one really works for me. For anyone suffering side effects I urge you to speak to your doctor about lowering the dosage. As a word of caution I would also like to note that you should not attempt to adjust the dosage on your own. Your doctor can recommend the correct dosage adjustment, timframe, and monitor any potentially dangerous side effects resulting from the change.

Lipitor 20mg
*Muscle deterioration:*
I had to stop taking walks.
*Diarrhea:*
I am sorry to tell my doctor doesn't know how to treat me.
He raised Tenormin to 50 mg a day, and it made a catastrophy. Severe electrical heart problem. Very debilitating. Permanent chest pain. I acted: I reduced it to a minimal level of 12.5 mg a day.
I have stopped Lipitor 20 mg and replaced it with.

Nattokinase
CoQ10 (Ubiquinol)
Cucurma
Lecithin
Omega 3
Magnesium supplements
Very effective!
Above is from science. Lipitor is from business.

Now, all angina symptoms are gone. No more arythmia.
I have also dropped one aspirin a day, and replaced it with Allicin. (Concentred garlic)
I have learn that aspirin is doing the opposite of the expected effect for 40% of people. It is causing a sever eye pathology, macular degeneration, and stomach bleeding. And after many months it has no beneficial effects, only adverse effects.
Garlic has so many positive side effects.
