Hello! Topomax is actually used in order to prevent migraines. This medicine is taken daily to keep migraines from happening, and yet can reduce the need for pain killers in case of the acute migraine. If you are experiencing often migraines you should first talk to your health care provider cos every person with migraine is different and therefore needs different treatment. The only way to get this drug is through a prescription! I haven’t used it cos I don’t have such problems but my best friend did, and she says topomax helped her in having fewer migraines!!!
