Noticed in a store that they had Monster (the energy drink) iced coffee kinda things now. Like (you've probably seen 'em) they look like regular Monster energy cans, but they're like iced latte type things. I figured I's try the Mocha one and it was REALLY good (IMO). I had like a 15 min wait for a taxi so I went back in and bought three more (because I'm a dolt who can't do anything in moderation and was willing to pay £3.49 per can).
Anyway, I drank all four over the last couple of hours and then was like "okay, that's my limit, probably over" 'cause 4 Monster energies is...like, where after that is toooo much caffeine for me.
I started feeling really weird so I checked the can* and realized each can contained 300mg Caffeine, NOT the usual 150mg that the energy drinks have.
I'm sick anyway** and now I have typical caffeine side-effects, tachycardia, nausea, jitters etc.

Would Gabapentin work? It's a sedative, but synergised with Caffeine? I have a small about of Bisoprolol (a beta blocker)...or just a lot of water?

*I noticed it said "Supplement" and had a lot of B vitamins so I thought maybe I was starting to experience a Niacin Flush

**the store is right next to my doctors where I'd been because overnight an infection in my foot has started necrotizing and I have a moderate fever of 101.5
