In reply to Wellbutrin tremor, posted by jaby on August 11, 2004, at 17:26:32
> I have terrible tremor with welbutrin, but it is something (among others in combo) that helps after 30+ meds. I have just recently tried atenolol and it definitely helped the shaking and calmed me down, but put me in a funk depression-wise. I am taking a micro dose already. Anyone have any ideas or another beta blocker that's less apt to cause depression?
Pindolol is the one that Stahl talks about in "Essential Psychopharmacology" as being sometimes used to augment antidepressants. Its mechanism in doing so is serotonergic; perhaps it might provide enough of a lift to offset the depressant effect of blockading beta receptors that you seem sensitive to.Todd
