My question is ...Prozac works best for my depression however because I have essential tremor it does cause the tremor to worsen at times and also the Prozac does nothing to help my anxiety. In your opinion, would you think I should try Propranolol or Pindolol? Thanks for any advice.

>Beta-blockers (eg. propranolol & pindolol) are one of the most common treatments for essential tremor. On the other hand, I'm inclined to think that antiparkinsonian agents and stimulants would be more effective against the tremor induced by SSRIs (eg. Prozac), which is of a hypodopaminergic nature.
