 Brief answer ....ideally you need to be evaluated for finding the exact cause for your tremors in hand. Detailed answer.... Hello, Thanks for the query. Such typed of tremors which occur while moving the hands and going away when on rest are called as kinetic or intention tremors. Although the way restyl is helping you,it indicates that probably you are suffering from anxiety,however there are various other causes which need to be looked into. These causes can be.. Stress and anxiety Fatigue Excessive use of alcohol or tobacco Use of drugs like cocaine Hyperthyroidism Peripheral neuropathy Diabetes rarely brain tumors etc Use of certain drugs like antidepressants etc. Although you are being relieved by RESTYL,you must consult a neurologist and get examined and investigated by him. It is always better to reach to the basic root cause for the problem and then treating it. Endless use of RESTYL will  make you dependent on the drug and gradually the dose would also go up. I hope it helps,however you may revert to me for any further query. Best of luck Thanks
