    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Movement Disorders

    Background:

    • Orthostatic tremor is a rare neurological condition characterized by involuntary shaking.
    • It typically affects the lower limbs and trunk, often exacerbated by maintaining an upright posture.

    Observation:

    • Three patients presented with orthostatic tremor primarily affecting the legs and trunk.
    • The tremor was notably absent during ambulation, sitting, or recumbency.

    Findings:

    • Two of the three patients demonstrated a positive response to clonazepam treatment.
    • Clonazepam effectively managed the symptoms of orthostatic tremor in the observed cases.

    Implications:

    • This suggests clonazepam may be a viable therapeutic option for managing orthostatic tremor.
    • Further research is warranted to explore the efficacy and optimal dosing of clonazepam for this condition.
