A member asked:

Can energy drinks replace allergy medications?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO!: Energy drinks have caffeine to give you energy and a bunch of harmful chemicals. Allergy tablets that are available otc have antihistamines and are also combined with decongestants. Decongestants can make you hyper, but they are not caffeined products.
