Do others not get a lot of headaches on caffeine? Yeah there's ones that come with going off caffeine, but the amount of headaches days I have a month plummets once off of the stuff.



That's either dehydration or withdrawal. Caffeine is a diuretic.

If you consume roughly the same amount of caffeine at the same time each day, and go out of your way to drink more water, caffeine use won't cause headaches.


Caffeine is in many anti-headache drugs because it literally is a vasoconstrictor that helps reduce headache.


I don’t get headaches from caffeine and I imagine most daily drinkers don’t either.
