NEW YORK, Jan 16- Red Bull, the popular energy drink whose slogan is "gives you wings," provides no more energy than a cup of coffee or a caffeine pill, according to a lawsuit made public on Wednesday. The lawsuit claims that Red Bull uses deceptive marketing to charge a premium for a product whose claims are largely unfounded.
The FDA noted that the allegations, which date back to 2004, don't necessarily prove the drinks are linked to the deaths.

Durbin and Blumenthal asked the FDA to look into the interactions between caffeine and the additives that are often found in energy drinks.
