The so-called energy drink has already been banned from sale in Norway, Denmark, Uruguay and Iceland, while health departments in France, Ireland, Turkey, Sweden and the US have expressed concern.
Red Bull has previously been linked with unexplained deaths, including the 2001 case of a student who died shortly after sharing three cans of the energy drink in the UK, and several other cases in Sweden.
Chatsmore Catholic High School hit the headlines last week when it banned its pupils from drinking the caffeine-based energy drink because teachers had noticed a change in the children's behaviour.
Anne Ward, acting headmistress of the school, told the Daily Mail: "We noticed a change in the behaviour of some of our students, and when we investigated we found that they had been buying these drinks on the way to school.
"Students are drinking more caffeine, which is making them hyperactive in some lessons because they haven't had the time to run off all the energy."
Red Bull has also been labelled as dangerous due to its role in Britain's binge-drinking culture. Red Bull mixed with vodka has become popular with students and young drinkers as a way to stay up later and party longer.
Some experts have pointed out the dangers of mixing caffeine, a stimulant, with alcohol, a depressant.
Red Bull's ingredients include: caffeine, one can contains the same amount as one filter coffee; taurine, thought to increase metabolic rates; and glucuronolactone, which is found in the body as a substance produced by the metabolism of glucose in the human liver.
Red Bull is also accused of "cynical marketing" in the Daily Mail, which claims that it is aimed at the youth market.
The company has been associated with extreme sport events targeted at a young market. According to the latest report by analysts Mintel, the drink is associated with "dangerous, on the edge, adrenaline fuelled activities".
The report also reveals that 48% of people aged 20 to 24 believe sports and energy drinks are "a good mixer with alcohol".
Red Bull also employs viral marketing techniques and students are paid to hand out free cans on campuses.
Earlier this month Red Bull launched a £2m marketing drive for its new Simply Cola drink, which pushes the "naturalness" of the product.
The campaign rejects Red Bull's traditional cartoon-style and the tagline "Red Bull gives you wings" in favour of ice sculptures in the shape of the bulls which are used for the drink's logo.
The strapline, "A cola from Red Bull, strong and natural", aims to convey that the cola's 23 ingredients are all derived from natural sources and has no preservatives, additives, phosphoric acid, artificial colourings or flavours.
Red Bull declined to comment on the allegations.
