I have been having trembling in my hands for the last 4 to 5 years, and it has increased recently. Today I took a cough syrup containing ambroxol, guaifenesin, and terbutaline, and after a few hours, my hands, shoulders, and arms started trembling more. Could this be a side effect of the cough syrup, and what should I do?

Have a query?

It is possible that the increased trembling in your hands, shoulders, and arms after taking the cough syrup is a side effect of the terbutaline component, which can cause nervousness and involuntary shaking.
If you want, I can explain more about how terbutaline affects the nervous system or suggest other cough treatment options.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand you've been having hand tremors for 4-5 years, which have worsened recently. You took a cough syrup with ambroxol, guaifenesin, and terbutaline, and now you're experiencing increased trembling in your hands, shoulders, and arms. Could this be a side effect of the cough syrup? What age and gender are you?
