Is Tremadone a prescription drug? April 4, 2019 – Posted in: Uncategorized

Tremadone is an all-natural herbal supplement. It is not a drug and does not require a prescription.

Many people take Tremadone along with their other prescriptions, but this is a decision based made by you and your doctor.

Here is a list of the all-natural ingredients along with some referenced scientific studies. This will help establish why Tremadone is formulated as it is for maximum effectiveness against essential tremors. If you know anyone who is needing additional information about managing their body tremors, please share this hopefully helpful article with them.

GABA
The inability of GABA receptors to communicate effectively in the cerebellum has been noted as the most likely cause of Essential Tremor in multiple studies. [1][2]

Valerian Root
Valerian Root enhances the message relay of neurotransmitters in the body. It has an effect similar to Benzodiazepine drugs, but carries none of the potentially dangerous side effects. [3]

Skullcap
Skullcap is known to be rich in the type of antioxidants that protect against the degeneration of healthy neurotransmitters in the brain, such as GABA. [4]

Passion Flower
Long used as a traditional remedy for anxiety, Passion Flower has performed as well as prescription drugs, in double-blind studies in reducing generalized anxiety disorder. Though often underreported, generalized anxiety disorder impacts a considerable portion of people suffering from tremors. [5]

Folic Acid
Folic Acid deficiency is thought to reduce the effectiveness of neurotransmitters in the brain, which can cause a number of unwanted symptoms including depression and anxiety. [6]

B-12 with Methylcobalamin
Groups who are most prone to B-12 deficiency — like folks who suffer from fibromyalgia and alcoholism — also have a higher risk of tremors. It has been working very well in the Tremadone formulation. [7]

B-2 with Riboflavin
B-2 with Riboflavin plays a vital role in metabolism and helps the body better absorb the ingredients in the Tremadone formula.
