Think this year is a bad batch, in the sense that it released the caffeine too early. I was up all night and have been taking these pills for years without issues.

I took the extended release caffeine pill last night before the fast and I was up the entire night. Did anyone else have an issue this year? I’ve taken them before without any problems.
As if fasting with little kids isn’t hard enough, now I have to do it on no sleep.

This is what I was afraid of. Even though in the past everyone said it works great, I buy caffeine suppositories. I use them in the late morning and I feel a boost with no headaches. Aside for the gross factor of using a suppository I highly recommend.
Happens to be that even though I didn’t use the slow release caffeine pill, I was also up for hours in the middle of the night. I did take the slow release Advil but I doubt it’s from that. I have a tremendous amount on my mind and I’m anticipating one of the most stressful weeks of my life coming up.
Seems that for some reason Hashem wanted a lot of us to be awake last night. May He send us the strength to get through this hard day.

I have been using suppositories for years I use one in the morning right when I get up before a headache and then in the afternoon when I usually have a coffee. I heard about the slow release caffeine pills and whoever I know uses them is up at 6am but besides that it works.
