Topamax, also known as topiramate, is a drug used to treat epilepsy and seizures. Topamax, manufactured by Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceuticals, has been prescribed to over 800,000 people since its introduction in the late 1990s.
Recently, Ortho-McNeil issued a warning regarding Topamax's tendency to cause eye disorders such as secondary angle closure glaucoma and acute myopia, conditions characterized by blurred vision and eye pain. According to a September 26, 2001 press release, at least 23 Topamax patients have developed glaucoma. While Ortho-McNeil reports that the condition is reversible and dissipates upon discontinuation of Topamax, failure to act at the first sign of these side effects can lead to permanent and serious vision problems.
See your doctor if you have experienced adverse side effects associated with Topamax. In addition, it may be important to contact an attorney who can help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be time limits within which you must commence suit.
