Brief Answer:
Shaking will improve after taking alprax

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I think this shaking is due to anxiety and it is going to improve after taking Alprax tablet so no need to worried about this. If shaking continue even after two days than I would recommend you to show it to a Neurologist. He can guide if it is any thing else or just a stress reaction.
