Is it normal that my chest hurts after drinking amp energy drink?

I like the drink's flavor and energy effects, but every time I drink it my chest hurts. Does this happen to anyone else?

    It's not likely your heart, but your stomach. My stomach can be very sensitive to caffeine or anything that can produce a lot of acid. I don't know the exact reason for it being just Amp (does coffee give you chest pains too?), but it sounds a lot like simple indigestion.

    If you really do not want to lay off of Amp, then I would suggest taking a Pepcid acid reducer in the morning, or anytime before you have an Amp. That may help.

    Maybe you don't tolerate too much caffeine. I know energy drink's contains the amount of caffeine of at least 50 cups of coffee. If your chest hurts don't drink it.

      You should seriously do your research before posting stuff like that online. There are naive people out there who tend to believe whatever they hear..

      The amount of caffeine in 50 cups of coffee is enough to KILL any human being..
      That would be AT LEAST 3000mg of caffeine (average low caffeine coffee is 60mg, high is 120)..
      I don't think there is any energy drink that exists that has over 500mg...
      One of the strongest energy drinks (its actually a shot) on the market is Spike All Day Energy Shot, and it has only 350mg.
      Most energy drinks have 60-100mg tops, redbull included.

    Have you heard the old saying "if it hurts don't do it"... Well don't do it... Stop drinking it....FYI, if you knew what those drinks do to your heart...you would never pick up another can!

    'Energy' drinks are crap! Eat a more balanced diet and you won't feel the need to waste money on that nonsense.
