For my husband, the tremors stopped entirely after taking his doses. Balance improved. He stopped falling frequently. His main side-effect is occasional nausea or upset stomach. It doesn't happen all the time. He has fewer stomach issues if he eats something with the pills, like crackers or fruit.

Thank you for the information. I'm going to give it a try...
My tremor stopped and I only have a slight one when my medicine is low in the morning.
Side effects are: if I take 2 pills at the same time my blood pressure drops.
I get jerky movements, but not all the time.
