Hello,
Thank you for your query.

Firstly, you are currently on eltroxin, ferronine, glycomet and ultra D3 and pause.
Eltroxin contains thyroid hormone supplements. So, you have hypothyroidism. Check your TSH,T3,and T4 level. Because if the drug is overdosed, then it can lead to tremor, nervousness, excitability, and many more. But in our clinical experience, most common side effect is tremor, which you have told in your query.
Ferronine contains multivitamin and iron and folic acid. It has no such side effects.
Glycomet contains metformin. In our clinical experience, its most common side effects are hypoglycemia and gastrointestinal disturbances.

Now, pause contains tranexamic acid. It helps in coagulation of the blood. In our clinical experience, most common side effect of this drug is gastro intestinal disturbances. So, possibly, pause is not the causative agent of your condition.

From the above discussion, it is clear that there are two possibilities
1.     Overdose of eltroxin.
2.     Side effect of glycomet. Because sometimes, in hypoglycemia you can also feel this type of symptoms.

If you do not have any symptoms like dizziness, feeling of unconsciousness, then it is definitely due to overdose of eltroxin and not due to pause or glycomet.

You have to take lower amount of eltroxin than you are taking right now. You can take it as 100 mcg for few days. But within this time period, make an appointment with your endocrinologist for clinical examination, ordering a thyroid profile test, and adjusting the dose as per your thyroid profile report.

Hope this information suffices. Let me know, if you have any more question.

Regards.
