How would you recommend i cure my caffeine addiction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Taper or cold turkey: You can reduce your daily intake of caffeine by a cup a day or two, if you can, otherwise if that's not possible going cold turkey. Use Ibuprofen or tylenol (acetaminophen) as necessary for the withdrawal headadache, but not over the max dose on the bottle. The withdrawal headache can last for days to a couple of weeks.
