    \n
  1. Medications<\/strong>
    Beta-blockers<\/strong>
    These are commonly used to treat essential tremors, the ones that are caused by a neurological
    disorder.
    Anti Seizure medications<\/strong>
    In the case of certain patients, beta-blockers are ineffective. They are prescribed anti seizure
