What Causes Recurrent Tremors In The Hands While On BP Medication?

My husband is 52 years old. His hands started shaking 2-3 years ago. He has a random twitch which started occurring once a month now it occurs more frequently. We are trying to figure out what is wrong. He is taking blood pressure medication. His blood pressure has stabilized. He is eating a healthier diet and exercising. What causes ones hands to shake and a twitch? Thank you. Dawn Boseman

Hi there

After going through your query I understand your concern about your husband.

I would like to tell you that causes of muscle twitching varies from minor to major, less serious to serious & from nutritional deficiencies to nervous system disorder that needs further evaluation for proper management accordingly.

Diuretics drugs used for hypertension can also cause muscle twitches. Kindly consult your treating physician regarding this for further management.

Hope to have been helpful.

Kind Regards
Dr. Navneet Bansal
