Abstract

Background, objectives and methods

Here, we report a case of a patient who reported using high dose caffeine and was observed with multiple episodes of caffeine-induced mania with psychotic features and met criteria for caffeine use disorder.

Results

To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of caffeine-induced mania in a patient that also specifically met criteria for caffeine use disorder.

Conclusions and scientific significance

This case supports evidence that caffeine use disorder should be considered for inclusion in future diagnostic manuals as a potential drug of abuse pending additional research.
