Yes, in some patients, Madopar (levodopa + benserazide) may paradoxically exacerbate the symptoms of parkinsonism, including tremor. These changes may be particularly noticeable after a longer period of use of the drug, such as two months. Madopar can also affect blood pressure, causing both hypotension and hypertension.
In this case, it is worth consulting a neurologist to assess further treatment.
