A recent study has revealed relation between Topamax and Kidney stones. It has been found that Topamax does increases the risk and possibility of acquiring kidney stones in one’s kidneys and urinary track.
Topamax is an anti-seizure drug that’s also taken for migranes kidney stones treatment. The neurological drug Topamax was found to cause a condition called systemic metabolic acidosis which can be more clearly defined as buildup of excessive acid in one’s blood that further affeects in the form of increased propensity to develop calcium phosphate kidney stones in one’s kidney.
Anything that makes blood and the urinary track more acidic is an element that may affect and help in building up kidney stones in one’s kidneys. One should keep away from acidity causing substances, food and lifestyle. A regular exercise, adequate intake of water and timely sleep may help sustain a normal acidic status in one’s blood and urinary track. I think Topamax if taken on prescription, should be parallelly supported by ample intake of water so as to prevent acidity and possibility of formation of kidney stones in one’s kidneys.
