Prednisolone hand tremors: What helps?

@dm06, Hi!

I am sorry for your son's experience and hope he gets better soon.

I have not been on Prednisolone, so I can not share any experiences with this medication. But what I can share is that I had some hand tremors with some AEDs and those tremors took some time to stop after taking off those medications. They did not disappear, immediately. How much time? Some months, I can not remember exactly how many.
So, there is hope. I hope you will have your kiddo back as he was.
Did a new medication be introduced after leaving Prednisolone? Did he press and rub his hand while taking Prednisolone or did that appear after leaving this medication?
My best vibrations to you and your kiddo!
Santosha

Thanks so much for your well wishes. He is 3 months off of it. Yes, he starred Xcopri a new seizure medication now. In hopes to help with seizures and brain inflammation. Prednisolone caused the hand issues it started with severe tremors. Then he stopped the medication and the hand issues continued with pressing and constantly rubbing. He doesn’t want to use his hands either or open them. They are always clenched. He never had it prior to this. Any ideas how long it took for you? Thanks for the well
Wishes, we can sure use them.
