Does anyone have a good hangover cure that doesn't require more drinking?
Comments
time?
other than that, just odds that you sleep through the whole thing which would require you to stop drinking a bit before bed. you can also try to pound down vitamins to replenish what your body gets rid of when you're drinking.
sleep for a while
Yes.
Eat some eggs, bacon, and have a couple of glasses of orange juice.
Also, if your stomach can handle it, take 2 aspirin.
I could go into the medical reasons for each one of those, but you would just get bored and your eyes would glaze over. Unless you're a biology nerd like me and thrive on that kind of stuff. Suffice it to say that you are trying to replace lost nutrients and mop up the by products of the toxic chemicals your body has produced through metabolism of the alcohol and it's particulate matter.
And one other thing that will help the most, but that most people don't have access to, is to have someone give you an I.V. loaded up with lactated ringers. I happen to have access to this because I'm in veterinary medicine school. So, we "practice" giving I.V.'s a lot on Saturday and Sunday mornings. You would be absolutely shocked at how quickly you feel completely better after having an I.V. dripped in you for about 15 minutes or so. lol.

Water, water, water. The main cause for the symptoms of a hangover is dehydration. Drink a shitload of water.

Juice, juice, juice. Orange Juice is very good. Grape Juice is another good one.
The only thing is don't drink them if your stomach is hurting too bad. The acid from them can make that worse.
Oh, and one other thing I forgot to put in my other post, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT take Tylenol or Ibuprofen. You will hurt your liver. That is a big major humongous no no.

Heh. Thanks. First time I ever heard anyone explain in a sensible way WHY juice is better. Personally I like water better because I usually drink on an empty stumache and juice the next day (or just when I sober up) really messes everything up. I take it that's the acid?

Yeah, the acid will mess you up. Especially if you are prone to ulcers or reflux. Have you tried Gatorade instead? It's not quite as acidic plus it's got the electrolytes and glucose. A banana is not a bad idea either to help replace electrolytes that you need.You should also stay away from aspirin if your stomach is that sensitive as well. It can cause some pretty bad damage to your digestive tract and even scarring in some people.
Take care of your belly!!!

I'm a water-holic. Seems to work for me. Never had a hang-over in my life.

According to upallnight, freedom from hangovers is a myth.
Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.
There are 2 symptoms of hangover, headache and nausea.
For Headeache the best cure is lots of water as most people suggested.
For nausea I suggest Pepsi
Not scientifically proven but it works for me, my theory is that the freezy drink "wake up" the stomach and open the lower passage which has being shut in order to avoid any more alchol being assimilated (hence the vomit)
Plus it cleans all the digestive system from all residue of alchol wiping away that awful alchol after taste that contributes to the nausea.
Try and let me know
powerade
98% of the teenage population does or has tried smoking pot. If you''re one of the 2% who hasn''t, copy & paste this in your signature.
Drink alot of tomato juice.
Don't Drink, prevention is better than cure.
We're all Geniuses. Most of us just don't know it.
Without more drinking? No. There is no easier way. 3 Oz of clear spirit in 32 Oz of water does the job in a little under 30 minutes. It clears the ethanol out of your body. It is important to replace the salts in your body too. Gatorade is essentially saltwalter with traces of potassium and well, sugar, which is not good for hangovers.
Without drinking, the only surefire way is...
Pretzels and Water, water water and then more pretzels.
What I still do when I have a really bad hangover is induce vomiting. I am not sure what stays in the stomach after a night of partying, [nor do I want to know] but after vomiting, I feel better. Of course, one loses more liquid with vomiting, so compensate with more water.

It really helps. Thought I was a sick freak for sometimes doing that. Also a great trick if you want to get drunk again a lot faster.

That's taking the easy way out.
===============================
Self-induced vomiting can lead to swelling of salivary glands, electrolyte and mineral disturbances, and enamel erosion in teeth. Laxative abuse can lead to long lasting disruptions of normal bowel functioning. Complications such as tearing the esophagus, rupturing the stomach, and developing life-threatening irregularities of the heart rhythm may also result.

Which is exactly what I tell the next person I see overdosing, in stead of having them vomit.

Are you shitting me? A person with a hangover is not Karen Carpenter, they feel like crap and want to feel better. This is a snippet from an article on DISORDERS.

Take 4 NO2s before you passout/fall asleep and first thing when you wake up take 4 more NO2s with 16oz or more of Gatorade/Powerade.

Since hangovers are mainly caused by dehydration, the best way to prevent one is to drink two or three cups of water and take a few pain relievers (Advil, Asprin, Ibuprofen, Tylenol, etc.) before you hit the sack. It will stop it from being really bad, but you tend to still feel groggy. Of course, this isn't a cure, more of a prevention.
Drink some orange juice and sit on your ass all day.
Works for me.
