Brief Answer:
This can be taken up for Considerations

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for sending the question.

Lip tremors are not considered to be a very common side effect of this medication. However if you have noticed a correlation between when you started taking this medication in the beginning of your symptoms then it is remotely possible that the two could be connected.

I would discuss this with your doctor to see if he or she recommends changing the medication or altering the dosage. this does not sound like a very dangerous symptom but it should be addressed with your doctor to discuss the possible underlying causes.

Other possibilities include electrolyte imbalance or even stress.

Thanks again for sending your question.

Let me know if there are any more queries regarding this.

Sincerely,

Dr. Galamaga
