Does Topomac Cause Dizziness, Papitations And Trembling?

Hi Doctor, I am a 35 yr. Female, suffering from Migraine. Currently, I am taking Topomac - 25 mg for the last 20 days. But the moment I started the medicine, I am having slight giddiness, trembling, slight palpitation. I just feel like sitting quietly, and relax. Before that I was on Ciplar- 10 mg (50,20 mg before for an year, slowly reducing the dosage). Should I continue the tablet? Of course, all the medication is prescribed by a Neurologist only...
