I take this for migraines. The most common side effects that bother people the most are the tingling in the fingertips and tongue, problems concentrating and with memory, and a decrease in language skills (forgetting words).

For most people, these are typically short term effects and go away after awhile. However, the problem with concentration and decrease in language skills did not go away for me. I dealt with the problem by changing when I took the medicine. I now take 25mg in the morning and 75mg at night. That made a big difference for me. I still notice a small decrease in my language skills but not enough to stop taking it.
