I am so tired in the afternoon after lunch i have to take 2-3 nodoz pills (even though the bottle says to take 1/2 -1 pill) to stay awake. I do this 2-3 times per week. is this bad for me?

Caffiene is an addictive drug. It is terrible for you. It ups your blood pressure among other things. I am going to post a link here of the ill side effects. It is also addictive. You will probably have side effects when you try to stop the caffiene pills so you should probably cut back gradually to reduce this risk. Try finding other things to stimulate your body- like exercise etc..

Doesn't sound good. But then again it's like drinking a cup of coffee. But taking too many at once can increase your heart rate to extreme levels. You should talk to your doc. You should be tested for mono or maybe you are suffering from depression of some sort. Those all can have affect on your abil;ity to stay awake.

Yes, this is bad. You are addicting your body to rely on these pills and even worse, you are not following the directions on the label. Sometimes in the long run your body will become immune to these pills and you will be waisting your money on them.

I would think it wouldn't be good for you. I have heard drinking a glass of Orange Juice is better for you in the afternoon when you need a wake me up. It is suppose to be better than soda/junk, which only gives you a quick pick me up.

Well, people drink several cups of coffee per day every day, and kids drink a lot of mountain dew...
Try to cut back, though.... if you take too much it could make you anxious, cause your heart to palpitate, etc. Just be careful, k?

I take one every morning when I wake up and have for the last 22 years. It's not bad for you.

This is not good for your body. You are developing an addiction to caffiene.
