Brief Answer:
lorezepam and topamax can both cause drowsiness

Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Lorazepam and topamax can both cause sedation/drowsiness which can impair your driving skills because you may have difficulty concentrating due to the drowsy sensation

There are no other interactions between these 5 medications.

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
