I was prescribed with nortriptylene against depression. I also have seizures form time to time, for which I use antiseizure medicine, like Topomax. Are these two compatible?

No, they are not!!!!
… it is specifically written (among all) that Pamelor (nortriptyline, oral) should not be taken with antiseizure medicines such as carbamazepine (Tegretol). primidone (Mysoline), gabapentin (Neurontin), felbamate (Felbatol), lamotrigine (Lamictal), levetiracetam (Keppra), topiramate (Topamax), valproic acid (Depacon, Depakene, Depakote), oxcarbazepine (Trileptal), tiagabine (Gabitril), and phenytoin (Dilantin).
