Is it possible to overdose on adrenaline that your own body produces?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are rare disorders in which the adrenal glands produce too much adrenaline (pheochromocytoma). This can cause high blood pressure, palpitations, headaches, excess sweats. Episodes are sometimes intermittent.
