Head tremor related to CACNA1A mutations

Introduction: Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is characterized by the familial occurrence of migraine attacks with fully reversible transient hemiplegia. Mutations in three different genes have been identified; CACNA1A (FHM1), ATP1A2 (FHM2) and SCN1A (FHM3). Besides hemiplegia, several other symptoms have been described in FHM 1–3 mutation carriers,

Propranolol therapy for essential tremor of the head

Neurology, 1984
The effect of propranolol on essential tremor affecting the head was studied in a placebo-controlled trial. Clinical tremor scores and tremor amplitude as measured by an accelerometer were significantly decreased for both head and hand tremor by 160-mg/d and 320-mg/d doses of propranolol. Placebo and 80 mg/d were without effect. In individual patients,

Botulinum toxin treatment of essential head tremor

Neurology, 1995

Each subject received two treatments approximately 3 months apart, one with botulinum toxin injections and another with normal saline injections into the sternocleidomastoid and splenius capitis muscles.
