Topiramate is a medication introduced in the United States in 1997 for the treatment of epilepsy. Studies are currently underway to determine its effectiveness in the treatment of multiple conditions including bipolar disorder. It is generally well tolerated at doses commonly used in the clinical setting, however, there is little information regarding its safety in overdose. We report the case of a 24-year-old woman who ingested 4000 mg of topiramate in a suicide attempt. She was asymptomatic following the overdose and did not develop any adverse sequelae. In this article we will discuss the commonly seen side effects of topiramate use and examine the available data concerning topiramate overdose. We will review recommendations for the management of such an overdose. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science
