I'm on Topamax for migraines 150mg mornings and night. I never noticed weight gain or loss.

Maybe 25mg or 50mg. It worked for me for several months and I'm taking it at an extended release dosage right now bc I was having issues being tired all day every day but haven't been losing weight on this regimen

I lost 10 lbs in 7 days and got to a scary low weight but ended up gaining a lot of it back

Ultimately I had to be taken off of it after taking it for 11 years

I feel like within 2 weeks or so I started losing weight. It really helps if you do some sort of exercise with Topamax to lose weight.
