Abstract
Researchers at the Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, New Jersey and Belgium, and University of California, Los Angeles, CA used the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) and cognitive adverse events to evaluate neurocognitive effects of topiramate 100 mg/day vs placebo in 70 migraine patients aged 12 through 17 years.
Highlights
CSF cellular and immunoglobulin G (IgG) profiles in 40 earlier-onset (11 and
An open-label study of the effectiveness of topiramate in 97 children with migraine found that the most common side effects were cognitive (12.5%), weight loss (5.6%), and paresthesia (2.8%) (Hershey AD et al Headache 2002;42:810818)
It was concluded that the disability caused by the migraine should be assessed before initiating prophylactic treatment with potential side effects (Ferraro D et al J Headache Pain 2008;9:147-150)
