Abstract:
:Four patients with disabling action tremor in the setting of MS were treated with isoniazid (800 to 1200 mg per day). All patients showed significant improvement of the tremor, allowing more functional use of their extremities. To the best of our knowledge, this is the only medical treatment for this type of tremor.
