Honestly I don't think anyone could answer that for you as everyone is different and responds differently to medications. I think the most important thing is to be very open and honest with your doctor that is prescribing the medication to you. I have found it helpful to keep a journal of how I've felt during each week I've been on it so when I go to my appointments I can look back and tell him...it's easy to forget...plus with women...and hormones...I didn't know if that would come into play or not???? So I just wanted him to have all the facts...hope this helps...good luck!!

I was on Topa and had NO signs of depression. I did get confused easily so it interfered with my thinking process. I switched to baclofen 10 mg. 3 times a day and have no side effects except for it takes away the desire for me to drink.sigpicEyes on the PRIZE, a SOBER Future !!!Comment
