Yes it does cause tremors bt not in all cases n all tremors do not need intervention unless it is too severe..
N google has never helped anyone.. If u have a query it is always better for the patient to consult ans discuss with thr doctor as no google knows better thn ur own doctor who has spent years to make your lives better... It is the best drug used for bipolar disorder...

Tremor is a rare side effect with Desval. Are you on any other medication along with Desval?
Mania is also treated with anti-psychotics which are much more common causes for tremors.
In any case, pls talk to your treating doctor first to understand the cause for tremors. Drug induced tremors can be treated with some medications
