In recent years, the number of cases of acute poisoning from energy drinks among military personnel has been increasing. A literature search was conducted in the PubMed, Medline and ISI Web of Sciences databases and data analysis was conducted on the harmful effects of energy drinks on the condition of many organs and systems, which consists in an increased risk of the following pathological manifestations: anxiety, gastrointestinal disorders, dehydration, nervousness and tachycardia, rhabdomyolysis, acute kidney and liver damage, ventricular fibrillation, seizures, acute mania, stroke, pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus. The tactics of step-by-step diagnostics in the admission of military patients to the admission department of the Military Medical Clinical Centre of the Northern Region are presented. A clinical case of acute oral poisoning with energy drinks with the development of diabetes mellitus and multi-organ disorders is described: arrhythmia, pancreatitis, acute kidney and liver damage, which require immediate symptomatic therapy.
