Action tremors due to alternating activity in antagonist muscles create different clinical manifestations. Tremors range in frequency from 2.5 to 7 Hz and may be brought out by either posture or goal-directed movement. Using physiologic criteria, tremors can be divided into groups with possible pharmacologic implications.
