"I use this both for high blood pressure and for tremors caused by my mood stabilizers. If I miss my dose by even a few hours, I notice the tremors become quite quickly worse than while on metoprolol. Works well, but not perfectly. Definitely would be completely miserable and quite debilitated without it."

Metoprolol "It minimally reduced the tremors. The most startling side effect was the sudden drop in blood pressure after taking the medication for approximately 1 month to a level of 78/36 for no apparent reason."

"This medication has helped my tremors immensely. Before, I was afraid to walk down a flight of stairs. Another bonus has been the frequency and severity of my migraines. It does make me drowsy, and if I skip a dose or two, my migraines and shakes will increase dramatically. With this medicine, my quality of life has improved so much."
