Can caffiene pills be dangerous? If someone takes too much caffiene can it kill them? How much would be too much. I have a friend that snorts them and I know this is dangerous. But if someone were to swollow 4-5 at one time would that be harmful, or just keep them awake.

I accidentally took to many a couple of years ago. I figured it wouldn't hurt me. Boy was I wrong. I thought that I would have to go to the hospital, not only did they not work in keeping me awake. I almost passed out in the middle of a department store and got really sick on my stomach and ended up throwing up. I told myself that if I got through that, I would never take caffeine pills again. I know that they can kill you if you take to many, but thank god they didn't kill me.

your only meant to take what it says on the pack which is usually 2 per 3/4 hours but taking 4-5 wouldn't do much harm it would prob increase heart rate more because that is what caffiene does but also keep them wide awake for ages, taking 4-5 at a time for periods of time would be dangerous though but one off is ok
