A member asked:

Is it possible for heart become weaker after a caffeine overdose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

How much: You can overdose and die from too much water, but within reason, caffeine doesn't weaken the heart. It sometimes will precipitate an arrhythmia in susceptible people which is generally temporary.
