Urinary metabolites of caffeine in humans at 48 hours post-dose [184] Caffeine from coffee or other beverages is absorbed by the small intestine within 45 minutes of ingestion and distributed throughout all bodily tissues. [185] Peak blood concentration is reached within 1–2 hours. [186] It is eliminated by first-order kinetics. [187]
There is no standard value for "a cup of coffee." The caffeine content of cola drinks and most energy drinks can be difficult to determine, because in many cases the labels do not indicate the dose per serving. Caffeine doses in these beverages range from 20 to 30 mg in some soft drinks, up to 350 mg or more in some energy drinks.
