I have been on topamax for about 6 or 7 years now for bad seziures.. I have not had one spell since I have been on it.. I have not had any serious side ffects from thiis..

My daughter has received two doses/injections since last summer, since I have noticed a change in her well being. She complains of headaches, blacking out, unsteady gait, pain to her legs, and now has missed her period for the last 3 months, well this being the 4th month. I was blaming hormones as with the personality/moody changes.

Differin

User Ratings:
4.5	Effectiveness
4.1	Side Effects
5.1	Holistic Benefits

I have taken Differin two different times. The first time Differin was just in a progression of increasingly strong topical acne medications, the first time the the Differin was ineffective in treating my acne. I then progressed and took Accutane which significantly improved my acne. I now use Differin cream as needed to treat random break-outs on my face and I now, having eliminted the severe acne with Accutane, I am able to use Differin with satisfaction.

Advil

1.3	Side Effects
5.5	Holistic Benefits

Advil helps alleviate my menstrual cramps and I feel works best if taken before major cramps set in. I usually take 2 pills when I begin to feel a slight 'tinge' of pain and when taken early enough, I don't experience as intense cramping as usual.
