Q: is taking caffeine pills daily harmful? i prefer caffeine pills over coffee, just wondering if they are harmful in the long run?

: It may or not, however it is difficult to predict since individuals have different response to medications including caffeine. Caffeine could affect the heart rhythm and it could cause tolerance and dependence. It may cause headache and other withdrawal symptoms like medication of dependence.
