Five Hour Energy shots contain fairly high amounts of caffeine. Like any caffeine product, these drinks can make you feel jittery, nervous, and dizzy. Common side effects include a fast heartbeat, a rise in blood pressure, headaches, and trouble sleeping. In addition, these shots contain the vitamin niacin which may cause some people to experience flushing (hot feeling, skin redness). This is caused by increased blood flow near the skin.
A small number of deaths have been reported and associated with energy drinks - mostly from inappropriate use and over consumption. The FDA continues to investigate reports of illness, injury or death of people who took products marketed as “energy drinks.” A number of products that combine caffeine and alcohol have been removed over the years due to safety concerns.
Ask your doctor and pharmacist any questions you may have about 5 hour energy
