Depakote and Topamax are FDA aproved for Migraine Preventive Treatment; Read Side-Effects Before Using

Just to make sure that there's no misunderstandings when reading my earlier articles - Depakote and Topamax at the present time are indeed approved as migraine preventive.

Earlier on they were referred to as off-label but now they are fully fledged migraine medications.

Both Topamax and Depakote are very successful migraine preventives and have been a Godsend to many a migraine sufferer.

They are, however, still just as toxic as when they were off-label and have to be taken very carefully (pun intended). Consider all the side-effects; ask your doctor if your other health conditions won't be complicated by these drugs; do some research - Google is your friend.

Yours truly has written extensively about Depakote and Topamax so check the previous articles for more information.
