The answer is typically no. Topiramate, the chemical in Topamax, which is an anticonvulsant - it protects against seizures. However, there is evidence of a risk to pregnancy in humans. So, check with your doctor if you become pregnant while taking Topamax, and discuss with him whether you can take a different (safer) medication. However, note that many doctors feel that in some cases, the benefits outweigh the risks, as having a seizure can be devastating to a pregnancy.
