TOPIRAMATE Coupon

If previous anti-seizure medications haven’t worked, your doctor may recommend topiramate. It’s also used to help those who suffer from alcoholism or migraines. Yet, the mechanism by which topiramate inhibits convulsive activity remains unknown. Enhanced neuronal activity in the nervous system is often the cause of seizures. Topiramate, as far as we can tell, counteracts the aberrant behavior of neurotransmitters (chemicals that enable neurons to communicate) that is thought to underlie seizures. There is evidence that topiramate acts on the nerves directly. Topiramate is not meant to be used after a migraine has begun but rather as a prophylactic measure.
