Zonisamide (Zonegran) for migraine? Has anyone had any experience of this medication?

I've recently been taken off Topiramate (50mg twice a day) because it wasn't working for me and been prescribed Zonisamide (to be increased to 50mg twice a day). I've had a look on the migraine trust website and it hasn't been listed... I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this medication?
