I m taking 1 Betacap TR 40 daily for last 20 yrs , the doc had prescribed it for anxiety . but now if donot take the same, I start feeling week and my have slight tremour in my hands. Is my depression related to Betacap TR 40. FYI- Apart from Betacap, I also take atorva 10mg and Zeptol 200 mg.
Hello There is no doubt that you have depression...as you are on beta blocker for so long it is probable you have developed depression due to it as they are prone to cause it but not necessarily this is the case Secondly propanolol is the drug of choose for tremor so if you had problem of tremor , the doctor had no choice and you should have visits doctor regularly so that he could have tapered your medicine in such a long time...now your tremor are due to it's withdrawal.....but still there is hope...you consult a psychiatrist who will reduce your propanalol and give you another medicine to tackle your problem and that can also help you in your depression also... Take care
