Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.
I understand your concern.
These symptoms are related to effects of first dose hypotension.
Many antihypertensive drugs are known to cause low blood pressure on their first doses.
This low BP will manifest as restlessness wit tremors.
This will normalize in the due course of time.
Monitor your blood pressure and adjust dose accordingly if necessary.
Keep in follow up with your physician.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
