muscles Jan 27, 2000 Dr. I was wondering if muscle tremors (not cramps, but rather quick 1 sec. flexes of the muscles) could be a side effect or HIV or a side effect of medication? |

 HIV can rarely be associated with tremors. Some HIV related medications (such as the sulfa/trimethoprim antibiotics) are also rarely associated with tremors. Many drugs can cause Parkinsonian like tremors in some patients. A careful examination and history by a good doc (consider a neurologist who is an expert in these things)can often be useful. Hope that helps. KH | ||
