Article Abstract
Caffeine is an integral part of beverages, food, and medications. Severe intoxication of caffeine is rare, and reports are even scarcer. However, over-the-counter, unregulated sale of performance-enhancing compounds, such as caffeine, turns high-dose consumption into a real concern. Severe intoxication may be fatal, usually by malignant cardiac arrhythmia. We report a case of a 23-year-old university student who accidentally consumed about 100 times the amount present in an expresso of anhydrous caffeine.

: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid touted for a variety of medical benefits, including alleviation of anxiety. While legalization of hemp-derived products in the United States (containing ≤0.3% delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol [d9-THC] by weight) has led to a rapid increase in the commercialization of hemp-derived CBD products, most therapeutic claims have not been substantiated using clinical trials.
