What Causes Hand Tremors While On Metoprolol?
I was prescribed Nadolol many years ago for PAC, shaking hands, anxiety and blood pressure. Insurance company switched me to Metoprolol. My blood pressure is higher, some shaking is going on again, I feel light headed when moving too fast, and I sometimes hyperventilate again as prior to the Nadolol. They denied my doctor s request for the Nadolol. Would you know why?

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Dear mostly metaprolol won't cause tremors why because it is used as treatment for neuroleptic induced tremor.
May due to your anxiety neurosis you deveoped tremors.
Use tablets like alprazolam or diazepam etc under your doctor advice for anxiety then your symptoms may improve. Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care
