Sorry to hear about your migraines. I suffer from them 1-5 times a month and take Topamax 50mg at night for prevention and Frova to stop them when they start. I have been on Vit B2, Magnesium, Co Q10 and off and on Feverfew for over 8 years. I have only been on Topamax for 1 1/2 years and was very hesitant to start it because of the side effects, but I think it has helped. I have never had to go up on it except from 25 to 50 mg after 2 months of being on it. The vitamins are fine, but I do not think there are any wonder vitamins for migraines. I hope this helps.

Yes I’m starting to believe I have migraines half the month now. Do you experience any side affects from the Topamax?

I've been on Topomax for 12 years now as a Migraine preventive and don't have any problems with it. Some people do, some don't. I have Cluster Migraines that can last for up to 13 days, and also a Seizure Disorder. If the Migraines last too long they can trigger the Grand Mal Seizures so I have to use a preventative medication. I use Imitrex, Axert or Maxalt at onset, I've used them for so long I alternate them every year or so due to tolerance issues.

There are so many medications for the prevention of migraine, topamax is not the only drug out there. That may be the one they want to start with, but it certainly isn't the only one. So if for some reason it doesn't work for you or you don't like it, you can always try something else. And if your doctor doesn't give you an alternative, then you need to find a different doctor. Some people need a cocktail of medications. I take topamax, but I also need a few other preventatives along with it. So I do hope you find a regime that works for you.

Thanks for the tip Yvette! At least there are options out there for me. I believe part of the non-stop migraines is weight gain.
