Based on the evidence level, the first-line agents for managing essential tremors include sympathomimetic agents and primidone; however, from a tolerability standpoint, sympathomimetic agents are the first choice. Arotinolol is the first treatment of choice because it is the only drug developed in Japan approved for treating essential tremors. If sympathomimetic agents are unavailable or ineffective, a change to primidone, or a combination of both, should be considered. Benzodiazepines and other anti-epileptic drugs should also be administered.
