The order for updated information on Topamax is based on clinical trials and the experience of more than 2 million users worldwide, the Food and Drug Administration said Thursday. Most of the reports of problems have involved children. Most cases have occurred in connection with exposure to hot temperatures, vigorous activity or both. Children using the medication should be closely observed under these conditions, the FDA said. The FDA said potential cases of decreased sweating were observed in about 35 per 1 million Topamax patients; 1.6 users per 1 million had serious problems with it.

 "A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C. Jarvis, September 28, 1820 "What's the point of vaccination if it doesn't protect you from the unvaccinated?" -- Sandy Gottstein "Who gets to decide what the greater good is and how many will be sacrificed to it?" -- Sandy Gottstein |
