I started using Topiramate and found it really helped with my appetite. I did have to stop taking it because I have a history of kidney stones, and my nephrologist insisted.

Thank you so much for sharing. So, the doctor didn’t see a way that a bout with kidney stones could be prevented? Or drinking lots of water while taking could prevent kidney stones?

You got me thinking. I have the medications but still have not started using them.

I take Topiramate, or Topamax, for neuropathy. It does stifle my appetite. I like that about it. I like Gabapentin more, for nerve pain, but my pcp won’t prescribe it to me.
I wasn’t aware that Topiramate can cause kidney stones. I get severe UTIs very frequently. Now I’m wondering if the Topamax could be exacerbating the problem.
Thanks for the info.
