It's always a good idea to start at a lower dose and work your way up. Maybe you won't even need to go to 400mg to feel better, however, I am not your doctor, so check with him/her. Your doctor might be trying to treat other things, like seizures, so check. Cutting the pills in halves or quarters is not a bad idea, but what size are they? Can they be cut? Some shouldn't be, so check with your pharmacist first, a quick phone call will help. Topamax is a great drug, it gave me my life back, just make sure to eat enough, good luck! :)
i went back and talked to the pharmacist. turns out the script ACTUALLY said 25 mg twice a day, and not the 200 mg twice a day they gave me. my skeptical nature paid off.
