Action Tremor Associated with Lamotrigine Monotherapy [PDF]
Journal of Movement Disorders, 1970 Lamotrigine (LTG) is associated with a tremor when given in combination with valproic acid; however, a tremor associated with lamotrigine monotherapy is rare. Here, we report a case of positional and action tremor associated with lamotrigine use. Based on the temporal relationship, it is conceivable that lamotrigine increases serotonin transmission or ...

Harmaline Tremor: Underlying Mechanisms in a Potential Animal Model of Essential Tremor [PDF]
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2012 Background: Harmaline and harmine are tremorigenic β-carbolines that, on administration to experimental animals, induce an acute postural and kinetic tremor of axial and truncal musculature. This drug-induced action tremor has been proposed as a model of
