So I have a stomach ulcer and most caffeinated beverages contain a fair amount of acid. Caffeine is acidic in itself, but is supposed to be a lot less hard on the stomach when you don’t need to consume the acid from the coffee beans or the carbon from coke, etc.
The pills I have are 200mg, which is a fair amount. I’m sensitive to caffeine, so I decided to take a half yesterday. 100mg. I think even that was too much for me. Tried 50mg today, which seemed maybe a bit unnoticable. So tomorrow I will go with 75mg. Although cutting pills in eights doesen’t work very well.
I suppose I might just need to get accustomed to the pills, and then maybe 100mg will be ok.
Anyways, the stomach appears to like the pills, which is the main thing. And they help with negative symptoms. Feeling less under the weather.
