My wife was recently put on Equetro by her pdoc. she has been taking it for about a week now and the side effects are horrible, she is having breakdowns left and right. Is thi normal? if so how long will it last? Would Topomax be a better choice for her. I am so lost as to what to do to help her, please leave some feedback so that at least we know what to expect. P.S. her pdoc doesn't really talk to us about any of this, he acts too busy, we are in the process of finding a new doc for her but that can take a while. Thanks for all of your input we really appreciate it.
kinda scared and lost,
Michael

> LinkadgeYes, she has tried both in the past with the side effects being worse than the underlying problem....
