Red Bull does not cause renal failure.(Opinion- I work with End Stage Renal Disease patients.) Complications of consuming Red Bull is probable when a person is already in renal failure- acute or chronic. In fact, excess taurine -the amino acid present in Red Bull is excreted through normal kidney function. In the absence of functional kidneys, an accumulation is likely to develop in the human body. What I'm not sure of is what a lethal level of the taurine is. I know it is advised that patients on hemodialysis avoid taurine containing supplements as it is not effectively removed during treatements. Peritoneal dialysis patients likely share the same problem. References # #* Huxtable RJ. Physiological actions of taurine.

What else can I help you with?
What are the results of kidney damage from shigellosis?
Kidney failure and damage to red blood cells cause 15% of patients deaths and half the survivors develop chronic kidney failure, requiring dialysis.
What is rupturing of red blood cells that can cause kidney failure and death after an incompatible blood transfusion?
PYROGEN
In which episode does Peter drink Red Bull?
New Kidney in Town
Can red bull cause insomnia?
Yes
Why was the Battle of Bull Run a major battle?
Cause it was for the soda red bull
What are common symptoms of acute kidney failure?
anemia. The kidneys are responsible for producing erythropoietin (EPO), a hormone that stimulates red blood cell production. If kidney disease causes shrinking of the kidney, red blood cell production is reduced
Does red bull and vodka mixed cause short term memory loss?
Yes. Vodka alone would do that and mixed with Red Bull I would think that would add a layer to it. Red Bull is mainly caffeine.
You took 2 zantrex 3 5 hours later drank a red bull?
You will die in an hour, heart failure
Is there cocain in red bull?
No, there is caffeine, not cocaine, in the energy drink Red Bull. Red Bull Cola, however, was found to have trace amounts of cocaine. The levels of cocaine are too low to cause any effect without excessive consumption of the beverage.
What is the motto of Red Bull GmbH?
The motto of Red Bull GmbH is 'No Red Bull. No Wings.'.
Can you feed red grapes to your shih tzu?
No- grapes and raisins can cause major immediate health problems- kidney failure. One or two grapes would not be a problem, but even small quantities of raisins, or a bunch of grapes can be fatal.
How would kidney failure affect rbc production?
Since erythropoietin is synthesized in the kidney, the effect of kidney failure is to depress red blood cell production. Thus, anemia occurs. The average hemoglobin level for an individual suffering from ESRD (end stage renal disease) is no more than 10.8 in the vast majority of cases.
