How long does it usually take to lose weight on Topamax?

My doctor prescribed Topamax for migraines and to hopefully help me lose some weight. I just increased to 100 mg from 50 mg last night. Does anyone remember how long it took them before they noticed weight loss? I haven't noticed a change in my appetite other than diet soda now tastes disgusting. Do people lose weight on 100 mg? Thanks for your help!How long does it usually take to lose weight on Topamax?
Some people do not experience any noticable appetite suppression as a side effect of Topamax. Hopefully, though, you'll notice an effect soon if it's going to happen. I'd give it 3 weeks or so.
Best of luck to you,

I personally started noticing a difference within a week or two. I had gained a lot due to a different med though so it could have been that.
