Stop the medication right away and talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you develop allergic reactions such as shortness of breath, skin rash, swelling of the face or neck, decreased blood pressure and dizziness. 
This medicine may cause serious eye problems like an obstruction of fluid in the eye causing increased eye pressure (secondary angle closure glaucoma) and sudden decrease in vision with or without eye pain and redness.
These eye problems may cause permanent vision loss if not properly treated.
Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you experience any new eye symptoms, including any new vision problems. 
This medicine may decrease sweating and may cause fever (increased body temperature).
You should be monitored for signs of decreased sweating and fever, especially in hot temperatures.
This is especially important in children. 
Some patients may necessitate hospitalization if this happens. Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you experience decreased sweating, a high fever, or a fever that does not go away. 
This medicine can cause an increase in the level of acid in your blood (metabolic acidosis) which may lead to kidney stones, soft or brittle bones (osteomalacia, osteoporosis, osteopenia), delayed growth in children, and may cause harm to your baby if taken during pregnancy when left untreated.
This medical condition can occur with or without symptoms. Metabolic acidosis symptoms that you may experience include loss of appetite, feeling changes in heartbeat, having trouble thinking clearly and tiredness.
Your healthcare provider should ask for a blood test to monitor acidity level in your blood before and during your therapy with topiramate.
If you are pregnant, make sure that you talk to your healthcare provider to check if you have metabolic acidosis. 
This medicine may cause suicidal behavior or thoughts (like all anticonvulsants) in a small number of patients (1 in 500 patients).
Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you experience any of these symptoms, particularly if these symptoms are new, worse, or concern you; suicidal thoughts, thinking about dying, suicidal attempts, agitation or restlessness, difficulty sleeping, new or worse irritability, panic attacks, new or worse depression/anxiety, feeling angry or violent, aggression, acting on dangerous impulses, mania (an extreme increase in activity and talking) and other unusual mood or behavioral changes. However, suicidal behavior or thoughts may be due to things other than medications. Your healthcare provider may check for other factors.
Watch yourself closely for any changes, particularly changes, in thoughts, mood, feelings or behaviors.
Do not skip your scheduled follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider.
Contact your healthcare provider between visits as needed, particularly when you are concerned about your symptoms.
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you currently have or have previously had mood problems, depression, or suicidal behavior/thoughts.
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you have kidney problems including kidney stones, undergoing dialysis and other kidney problems.
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you have previously had metabolic acidosis (high acidity in the blood) or if you have liver problems.
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you have decreased bone density or brittle, weak, or soft bones (osteomalacia, osteoporosis, osteopenia).
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you have respiratory or lung problems, eye problems (particularly glaucoma which is caused by increased eye pressure), diarrhea, growth problem or a planned surgery.
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you are following a ketogenic diet (high in fat and low in carbohydrates).
Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant or if you are breastfeeding.
