Dear Saikat,
The doctor might have diagnosed a mood disorder in addition to your nicotine dependance. Unless the mood is stabilised, you may not be able to quit smoking. It may not reduce craving - but it will keep your motivation to quit high continuously for more than 3 months. You yourself will learn how to observe the craving going down without smoking.

Topiramate is even prescribed 100 mg daily for patients. That's not a problem in your case. Within 24 hours, your topiramate levels in blood comes down and your symptoms also disappear gradually.

Usually the medication topamac can not be suddenly stopped. You need to gradually tapper down the dose of the medication for which you can go for neurologist consultation .by the way you need to take plenty of water kidney stones can occur in patients taking topamac. I think you are already aware of that. Stay safe.

Topiramate is an anti-epileptic drug, which can be used to treat various neurological disorders like migraine. Where neophedan contains tamoxifen citrate which is a nonsteroidal antiestrogen used to treat breast cancer. They do not belong to same class of drugs. Can you please mention why are you taking topiramate? By the way topiramate can never be substituted by neophedan.
