I have been given antibiotics for a uti and without thinking i drank an energy drink today. i've been really unwell all afternoon since.

Likely unrelated: I see little reason to suspect any impact by your antibiotics on the effects of the energy drink.Most such drinks contain a variety of stimulants, from caffeine to vitamins. Antibiotics work separately, and do not interfere with these stimulants.The drink can increase your heart rate and may unmask (speed up) the emergence of other health symptoms that would have occurred anyway.
