Suggest Treatment For Tremors And Nausea While On Prazosin
My daughter , 15, just started Prazosin last night. She experienced difficulty walking, shaking (tremor like) and nausea. They suggested taking it earlier and we gave it to her about an 90 minutes ago and she is sweating and describes her heart as feeling like it could come through her chest
