Do Energy Drinks Have Any Effect On The Efficacy Of The Birth Control Pills?

Hi, my doctor prescribed 20mg adderall xr last week and today was the first day I started. I took a pill around 2:30pm. Well I had a redbull about an hour after I took a pill. I usually have redbulls during the day and I drank it without thinking I had the pill an hour before. I m just a little concerned about mixing the two because I ve been feeling a little more anxious than normal. Should I go to the emergency room to get checked out?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Energy doesn’t interact with birth control pills and does not cause failure of contraception pills.
You can safely take energy drinks while on birth control pills.
Wishing all the best.
Thanks
