Clonazepam For Shakes And Tremors (Top voted first)

I've had a traumatic brain injury and my right arm shakes uncontrollably. Do you think taking clonazepam will help the shakiness or tremors? After all the neurologist thinks it will. I want to know your views and thoughts on this condition.

REPORT

I myself have brain stem cancer and had the back of my skull removed and all but 2% of the cancer cut out. I'm on heavy doses of Meclizine, its a dizzy anti-vertigo pill but helps alot with shakes. I have shakes through-out my whole body and nerve damage on my left side. I'm on Clonazepam also, but i haven't noticed any help with the shakes from it.

Clonazepam has been known to help with these types of symptoms.

However, the FDA does warn that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, mood changes, and irritability.

Ref: MayoClinic Essential Tremor and Benzodiazepines

It is usually advisable to follow your doctor's advice for the best possible outcome for you.

Are you on any other medications?
