Title: Zonogran
Post by SophiaK on Mar 16^th, 2006, 7:09pm

Will it never end? Seems like the increase in Depakote isn't working, my Doc gave me a prescription for Zonogran. I tried Topamax twice with adverse reaction, I can't find much info on Zonogran, I am allergic to sulfa, I don't know if that applies, perhaps someone out there can give me some assistance, Thanks.

I had a reaction to Zonogram (made me drunk as hell with Vertigo - one of the BAD side effects). I'm on topamax, but found out years ago if I take the whole dose at night - I don't have the side effects that most people experience. You might try it again that way and see if it works better. It's been my life-saver.

Tried Topamax twice, 2nd time on a reduced dose, adverse reaction both times, the 2nd time in the hospital at 2 am with the adverse reaction. It's in the same family as Zonogran and that's a no no for me.
