I usually drink a lot of water before i go to bed after a night of drinking. SPAMYou will wake up without a hangover. Just do pee the bed..he he he

Or, there is this head-ache powder stuff that they sell at some gas stations in the US that will take a hangover away fast! I don't remeber what it is called though..

[Keefe]

or you could always drink some more...that usually works the best...

[Digital_Vixen]

I'd have to agree with the drinking more - it DEFINITELY helps SPAM ;D Especially after 6 Long Island Ice-T's ..

[the_warlord]

Unfortunately a few yrs ago I had to go to what they call SATOP in these parts after getting a ticket for DUI. SPAMFrom what I learned there the best thing for a hangover is lots of non-alcholic liquids and sugar. SPAMWhich explains why my old standby has always worked so well, a 16oz Pepsi & a Snickers bar! SPAMThis will make you feel better, but won't help you sober up any. SPAMIf I remember right the liver processes all alcohol out of your system and there is a chemical formula to figure out how fast it leaves your system. SPAMThis is what the breathalyzer is based on & why that test is used by law enforcement to test for drunk driving. SPAM Can't say the class changed my drinking habits, but that $2000 fine & loss of driver's license for 6 months definitely changed my drinking & driving habits, I don't do it at all anymore. SPAMIf I've been drinking, I either call a cab or a friend or I walk!

More drink, definitely! Actually acclimatisation is useful too. The more practise you get the better you become at facing the day after. Seriously though, I have heard that breathing pure oxygen helps to oxidise the poisons in the blood stream much quicker. However, don't over do it.

More drink is defintely a good thing - but when I get really blasted this seems to help me not get a headache.

What I do is take 3 tylenol or advil and chase them down with about 20 ounces of water before I goto bed. Even after a hellish nite I still don't get a headache in the morning.

[the_warlord]

hmmm concensus here is either drink more alcohol or drink water. well you know what they say about water and what fish do in it!!

i will try daves idea on painkillers and water before bed next time and evaluate his cure:)

I ran across this one last night. I have not tried it yet, but comes down a couple of generations so it must be worth something.

The story is about a guy that started a massive drinking binge on Christmas and did not stop until the end of the second week in January. He was so drunk he was paralyzed.

His friend gave him 2 teaspoons of honey every two hours for twenty-four hours. He got up and walked away stone sober and NO hangover!

I tried some of those new anti hangover tablets last night. Woke up this morning feeling great, had to take about 10 tablets though!

[gnogtr]

Wow, this is a very old thread, 2001, that's the year I graduated high school!

taking excessive amounts of medicine with lots of alcohol in the blood is extremely dangerous. For example, taking tylenol with a high blood alcohol level causes crystillization of a number of compounds in the liver, destroying tissue in massive amounts which can and has led to death. Taking 10 tablets of unknown active ingredients with alcohol is not wise. Your best bet is to drink water before going to bed and force some food on yourself, and more water, in the morning. Apple juice is also good, b/c the body absorbs it faster than water so it might not sit on your stomach so badly. If you feel like you are going to throw up, try to stay awake for a while to let the feeling pass (using above methods), otherwise you might choke on your own barf and die. We don't want our forum members dying on us. Getting plastered is fun, but make sure you do it safely (and legally *cough*)!!

oh, and those hangover tablets are crap. You're better off with a couple advil in the morning (NOT TYLENOL)

I haven't tried this personally, but everyone I know gets Jamba Juice and they say they feel normal.
