Techniques

The Art of IV Caffeine Injection

Caffeine injection is a delicate dance of precision and finesse. First, locate a vein (preferably not the one in your elbow, that's just not a good look).

Next, prepare your solution: a 10% caffeine solution, preferably in a sleek, futuristic vial.

• Use a 22G needle (the 23G is for the pros, but we're keeping it real).
• Insert the needle with confidence, but not too much confidence (you're not trying to win a prize).
• Administer 1-2 mL at a rate of 0.5-1 mL/min (slow and steady wins the productivity race).
• Tailor your dosage to your specific needs (i.e., the number of Red Bull cans you consumed last night).

Side Effects

The Unavoidable Truth

While IV-administered caffeine is a marvel of modern science, there are some potential side effects to consider:

• Jittery behavior (you might start to type 10,000 words per minute, but they're all gibberish).
• Nervous system overstimulation (you might involuntarily start a 3-hour debate on Reddit).
• Increased heart rate (you might start to think you're a teenager again, but trust us, you're not).
