Hello,

Oxygen alone doesn't cause any tremors. Tremors may be due to the drugs she has been taken. Can you let me know the drugs she has been taking and for what symptoms she is on oxygen therapy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Siva Kumar Reddy
