Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I drink coffee from starbucks and I am fine. But whenever I make it at home, I get dizzy after 8 oz and vertigo. I thought maybe I was drinking it on an empty stomach so even after trying to eat breakfast before hand, i still experience the same symptoms. Do I have a caffeine sensitivity?
Dear The recommended amount of caffeine is usually 400 mg per day for healthy adults. Common symptoms of caffeine overdose include dizziness, increased thirst, and diarrhea. Mild symptoms may be treated with drinking water and eating foods high in potassium or Magnesium. Of your feeling dizzy reduces the dose. Still symptoms persist consult your doctor.
