Dilmar
I don't have a tremor so can't help you on the question of whether Amantadine helps it.
Agonists had an appalling impact on my behaviour and thought processing.
Personally I would never take agonist drugs again but others may think differently.

DILMAR,
you can just try amantadine,. i know some people here have posted side affects but a lot of people seem to take it. certainly not pushing it, obviously since i've never tried it, just trying to be helpful. and of course there is selegiline.
you might also want to try the drug regime described by RLSIMI contained in this thread, combo of 25/100 +50/200cr every 3.5-4hrs.
