Brief Answer:
You may try atenolol (beta-blocker medicine).

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Action tremor's most common cause is something called a physiologic tremor. This can happen: if you take certain medicines, such as those used to treat depression, or asthma and breathing problems. If you drink coffee, smoke cigarettes. If you are anxious, excited, or afraid. If your muscles are very tired, for example because you just worked out. As the effects of alcohol or other drugs are wearing off. If you have an overactive thyroid gland ect.

If your tremor is caused by 1 of the problems listed above, the tremor should go away as soon as the problem goes away. So you may need to check the thyroid hormone level to see if you have the overactive thyroid hormone or not. You may try atenolol (beta-blocker medicine).

Please let me know if you need any clarification. If you have any more questions I am available to discuss them with you further. Wishing you good health.

Best regards,
