Dear Sir,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that considering your age I will like you to get your thyroid functions get checked at the earliest . Get a thyroid profile done . It is the most common cause leading to tremors in young individuals .

Next can be anxiety which can also give similar picture . Ciplar LA contains propranolol which can be taken for tremors which are caused by increased sympathetic activity .

Take care.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

You need to get S. TSH level , free T3 , free T4 levels . you can get it done from any lab . Plus you cannot take Ciplar by your wish , you will need to see a doctor for this . Please see a physician for this . I was under the impression that this medicine has been prescribed to you by your treating doctor , it can slow the heart rate even so it needs to be taken under supervision.
