The consumption of energy beverages is increasing, especially among young @entity1 . The increasing consumption of these drinks increases the data of side effects. Case report: A 26-year old male was admitted to Toxicology Department suspected of intoxication due to @entity1068 and unknown psychoactive substances. The @entity1 lost consciousness during a party in which he drank an unknown amount of @entity1068 mixed with an energy beverage ("Red Bull"). The @entity1 and his friends strongly denied the use of psychoactive substances. On admission, the @entity1 was stable, but unconscious (GCS 8 points), pupils wide, symmetric with weak reaction to light, respiratory rate 15/min. Neurological examination did not reveal any abnormalities. During the hospitalization, @entity2147 slowly disappeared and the @entity1 became restless, with recurrent episodes of @entity410 not reacting to @entity3175 , @entity2053 and @entity1363 infusion. The @entity410 finally abated after administration of barbiturates (Thiopental). This, in turn, caused @entity1576 , requiring @entity1 intubation and mechanical ventilation. The @entity1 mental status and respiratory status slowly improved. After regaining consciousness, the @entity1 strongly denied the use of psychoactive substances or of chronic @entity285 use. He confirmed the single use of high, but not clearly defined, @entity5834 dosage (in the form of "Red Bull") mixed with @entity285 . He mentioned that eight months earlier in similar circumstances he was admitted to the neurology department due to an episode of @entity410 . Ultimately the origin was not established, despite broad diagnostic testing. Thus the origin of the @entity410 was suggested to be of a toxicological origin. The @entity1 was released home in good condition, without any side effects of the @entity4968 . The psychological examination doe not reveal any symptoms of @entity285 or psychoactive @entity734 . In our case, due to the unclear nature of the history, we preformed broad diagnostic testing on admission to the hospital, which do not reveal the presence of any toxic substances except @entity1068 ; concentration in the blood was 2,41 gil. Unfortunately, serum @entity5834 levels were not measured. There was no identification of any other factors that could be responsible for the observed symptoms. It appears that based on the interview, clinical manifestation, and negative toxicology laboratory testing (excluding the presence of @entity1068 ), it is possible to connect the @entity410 state with the consumption of a high dose of energy drinks, rich in @entity5834 and @entity2226 .
