Wow. 8/10 Wonder what that says about me?
I switched Accutane and Topamax (I haven’t heard of either)

Ooh, very tricky – I got tripped up by the birth defect side effect. Accutane is very well known for causing birth defects, but there was no qualifier on that side effect (like there was on the suicidal risk side effect).
