With all medicines it is best to check with your health care professional (GP, pharmacist etc) whether it is safe to dive on.

Having done a quick check on the internet for the side effects of Topomax it doesn't appear to have any physiological effects which may impede diving BUT it does mention effects on concentration and diving which may make diving unsafe.

For this reason, please check with your health care professional to see if any symptoms you have may affect your diving. Depending what country you live in, you may find it easier to pop in to a pharmacist and ask them rather than making a doctor's appointment. Either way it is always best to understand the effects of medication fully before you undertake activities such as diving.

Do you have to be a certain weight or body type to be a scuba diver?

No, you don't need a certain body type to scuba dive. Because you use flippers to SCUBA dive, you can be a very lousy swimmer and learn to SCUBA dive. You may look stupid with a very tight wet suit during scuba diving, but you can dive. When I got certified, I learned that you have a very slightly higher chance of the Bends during scuba diving, but this is a small percentage. The pros of scuba diving outweigh the cons.
