Hi,
The weight loss is probably due to reduced appetite. If your appetite is unchanged after taking 50mg/day for a week or two you might want to consider a dose increase. If you can't tolerate 50mg/day you could always go back down to 25mg/day for a few weeks and then attempt to increase the dose if necessary.
The suggested starting dose for topiramate is 25mg/day!
