You can be allergic to anything that is not "endogenous" ie produced by the body itself. Any drug or man made chemical can be a possible allergen. I have seen people allergic to piriton (chlorphenamine) - a drug that is commonly used to treat allergic reactions :).
A true allergic reaction includes anaphylaxis (serious). Urticarial rashes (itchy and wheal like - like being stung by nettles or a bee) and facial swelling also suggest a true allergic reaction. Other symptoms such as palpitations, nausea, sickness, diarrhea, headaches, feeling "off" may or may not be allergic reaction - they tend to suggest intolerance or known effects of the drug (eg caffiene is known to give you palpitations, flushing and headaches in higer doses) rather than a true allergy per se.

It is an allergy to caffeine. This means avoid coffee, chocolate, and tea.
what are the symptoms of a caffeine allergy?
Caffeine has been proven to help Allergies, but if consumed in large amounts may affect your health.
Yes, there is a possibility that anyone at anytime can develop an allergy to marijuana.
No, but some seems to be triggered by exposure. So if you develop an allergy someone who spends a lot of time with you will get the same exposure to whatever and might develop an allergy too.
Yes, it is possible to develop an allergy to something you weren't previously allergic to. Your body chemistry changes about every seven years making allergies easy to develop.
Yes, people could develop an allergy to raccoons.
If you develop a a red bumpy wheal that passes out the baseline circle you made after intradermal injection within 30 minutes then you are positive for an allergy.
That question doesn't even make any sense!
If you have a caffeine allergy i strongly recommend you don't drink Green tea. I'll explain:- I changed to Decaff since i was having reactions to caffeine which has been affecting me mentally and physically. I have been drinking decaf for years thinking it was decaffinated. Had a cup of green tea the other day and if affected me terribly which prompted me to just check if their was caffeine it decaf also. Stopped drinking decaf and the next day even i felt so much better, clear headed and my skin is clearing up. Just to let you know if you do have a caffeine allergy stay of caffeine competely. Rooibus- Red bush tea from Tetley is great and its caffeine free. Bought some and love it!!!!!
Yes, someone can develop a resistance to caffeine that requires the person to drink more and more caffeine in order to get the desired affect. Caffeine is a stimulant and behaves in a manner similar to many other drugs.
Yes, because some of them contain caffeine, which can cause a racing heart (most "non drowsy" formulations have caffeine in them). Check the ingredients and the leaflet inside the packet if you are unsure.
yes you can develop an allergy or a sensitvity to anything at any time
You can develop an allergy against anything, at any period in your life - dogs, cats, pollen, milk products, and many other items. For instance, my wife developed an allergy to grass pollen when she was sixteen years old.
Anyone who has or is, developing an allergy, may need to get allergy shots. There are many ways one can develop an allergy: to outside or inside pollutants, allergic to dogs or cats, allergic to metals, etc. Usually one gets allergy shots when the allergic reaction is so bad and persistant, that they need to seek professional help.
