Hello,
It may be due to drug defaults or inadequate dose or type of drugs. Additional causes like metabolic or electrolyte anomalies must be ruled out. Consult a neurologist and get evaluated. An MRI brain must be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
