Abstract
I am writing in reference to your recently published article “What is more common in fatal caffeine intoxication – suicide or unintentional overdose?” (1) to discuss the toxicological and cardiovascular risks associated with the consumption of energy drinks, their potential to induce arrhythmia in particular. The mini-review referred to above underscores the dangers of excessive caffeine consumption but also highlights a broader public health issue: the underestimation of risks posed by energy drinks, especially in vulnerable populations. This issue warrants urgent attention due to their growing prevalence and serious health implications.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
