ABSTRACT:
A method and system for effecting withdrawal from caffeine dependency is disclosed wherein the system comprises a regiment of dosage units having varying proportions of caffeine and an analgesic. One embodiment utilizes a first dosage unit which has a caffeine content equivalent to the daily caffeine intake of the individual. This level of caffeine is reduced while the level of analgesia is increased. The relevant proportion of caffeine is gradually decreased until the individual is no longer ingesting caffeine. In some embodiments, a placebo is administered during the final stages of method and system.
