Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son is 9 been on topamax for 3 years adn before he was on it he could say his abc and count real good now he can't why? if I take him off meds will his memory come back? He was starting to read now he struggles with simply words. He has a hard time remembering things he learned 1 day to the next.
I went through your details. Topamax (topiramate) is a seizure medicine, also called an anticonvulsant. Topiramate is used to treat seizures in adults and children who are at least 2 years old. You can talk to your doctor about withdrawing from this drug.
As for your question, there are no adverse reactions to this drug in the spectrum of learning disability. You need to consult the doctor again for learning disability spectrum disorder with some other causes.
