Caffeine citrate

Caffeine citrate is a medication used to help newborns and premature infants with breathing problems by stimulating their brain and nervous system. It is a form of caffeine, the same stimulant found in coffee, but specially prepared for medical use. By activating certain parts of the brain, it helps improve breathing patterns and reduces pauses in breathing. It is administered under medical supervision, typically in hospitals, to support infants with underdeveloped lungs or respiratory issues. Caffeine citrate is effective and safe when used appropriately, aiding in the management of conditions like apnea of prematurity.
