Safe - Caffeine

[inkyspider]

Not really a big problem but just wondering it there was a quick way to counteract the effects of caffiene, or at least reduce them a little?

I may have taken a few caffeince pills and now i'm very jittery and feel funny and i know it'll go away soon but i was just wondering if there was a way to make them going away quicker.

Am i making any sense with what i'm asking?
Sorry for posting my nonsense.

Hey
You are making sense.
I am not aware of any methods of counteracting caffine. Sorry. But please pm me with the amount you took and how long and such.
Thanks

Caffeine, if you are taking it on a regular basis like you drink for example a few cups of coffee a day and have been doing this for some time then you stop taking in the caffeine then it takes around a week for you to be back to normal and to be back at your peak levels of performance and energy. Doing things that require you to expend alot of energy will help in burning the drug (caffeine) out of your system, like running, walking briskly etc

What you are feeling are the withdrawl effects of the drug or indeed if its a overdose of caffeine then that to will cause you to feel restless irritable shakey paranoid in some cases along with insomnia and so on

hope this helps

In short, no there isn't except to stop taking anything with caffeine in it and drink water. I hope you feel better soon.

Caffeine's a short-lived stimulant so I'd imagine you're fine by now. It wrecks the hell out of your immune system though so take it easy.

i find if you havent eaten the effects are worse so try to eat something if you havent recently.

*EDITED*You need to see a doc about that

I was just wondering if someone could tell me the negative effects of too much caffeine as people have said it can damage the body if you takes loads most days.

Same sort of symptoms would apply.

"people have said it can damage the body if you takes loads most days."

Taking to much of any type of medication, stimulant etc can have long term effects on the body if you are worried about these things then i advise that you talk to your GP or maybe NHS direct as the part of your post that i have quoted could lead to potential tip shareing information being posted by other members.

Take care
