Essential voice tremor

Treatment with propranolol

From Loyola University School of Medicine, Hines Veterans Administration Hospital, Chicago, IL.

We studied chronic oral propranolol therapy and placebo in seven patients with essential voice tremor. Mean scores for voice tremor and voice quality did not differ for placebo or propranolol. Hand tremor amplitude decreased significantly with propranolol. Voice tremor seems to be more resistant to propranolol therapy than hand tremor.
