Best cure for hangovers (besides another beer)
 
Ok. I'm strugglin. What is your best, quickest, tastiest cure for the day after solving the worlds problems? (Besides drinking another beer)

Dave1972 03-30-2003 12:13 PM

my wife got me started on this remedy a few years ago and it has worked pretty well! Usually lots of water is the key before you go to bed.....before sleeping is great to take a couple Gaviscons and Advils with plenty of water......helps tremendously the next morning/day.

I've heard of people drinking Pedialyte but have never personally tried that.

This will be an interesting thread!!!!:D :D :D

Throwing up helps.

A bloody mary in the morning makes it all better....:)

YEP!

THE BEST THING IS TO GET YOURSELF AN OXYGEN BOTTLE AND MASK. IN THE MORNING JUST SIT AND BREATH FROM THE MASK FOR 1-2 MINUTES, THEN YOU WILL BE FINE.

IT WORKS BECAUSE A HANGOVER IS CAUSED BY LACK OF OXYGEN TO THE BLOOD.

ONLY PROBLEM IS YOU MAY FEEL LIKE A LOOSER GETTING A BOTTLE AND A MASK, BUT YOU'LL FEEL MUCH BETTER ON THE MORNING AFTER.

A FRIEND THAT IS A LAB TECHNICIAN THOUGHT ME THIS TRICK.IT WAS THE ONLY WAY HE COULD GO OUT DRINKING WITH US ON THE WEEKEND AND STILL GO TO WORK. HE WOULD GO IN EARLY AND SIT FOR A MINUTE OR TWO WITH THE MASK ON THEN BE GOOD AS NEW.

BJM 03-30-2003 01:32 PM

Bloody Mary, 2 percoset and some hash. You won't feel a thing.

If you have the presence of mind the night before, I've found two extra strenght tylenol washed down with an alka seltzer plus will make life bearable the next day.

The only day after cure is 24 hours on a soft couch, a remote, and a girl to keep you stocked up with sodas.:D

THATS WHY POKER RUNS ARE AWSOME JUST HIT UP THE MEDICS FOR OXIGIN IF YOU WERE OUT DRINKING THE NIGHT BEFORE AND NOBODY WILL EVER KNOW YOU WILL LOOK AND FEEL LIKE A MILLION BUCKS ((WELL MAYBE)):eureka: :eureka:

HyperBaja 03-30-2003 02:12 PM

Whats a hangover? ;) ;) :D :D

THRILLSEEKER 03-30-2003 02:14 PM

Lots of water before you go to bed, and for the morning about a gallon of Gatorade, I am going to have to try the oxygen thing.

wildthing357 03-30-2003 02:19 PM

YOU DRINK ALOT

RM2 03-30-2003 02:44 PM

My head might still hurt but a big fat greasy cheeseburger makes my stomach feel better, unless of course you wash it down with a pepsi with rum in it.

OBNOXUS21 03-30-2003 02:54 PM

Taking Tylenol with alcohol in you can be pretty bad on the old liver ;) Or I guess WORSE on the liver.
Ibuprofen phunks up the stomach.

I Suppose at this point it really doesn't matter by now :)

Waiting to sober up before bed is what always works for me, when I don't pass out before that!!! Then I am just stuck with it the next day ;(

OldSchool 03-30-2003 03:21 PM

Big glass of water before bed and some cooter in the morning;) :cool: :D :D

BadDog 03-30-2003 03:46 PM

Lowering your sperm count several times really helps.

florida gator 03-30-2003 04:16 PM

Cuda, I used to do the Tylenol thing milk before drinking to coat the stomach. Then with a few glasses of water after drinking until I heard the same thing ubnoxious said and stopped.

I have seen an add for a supplement at GNC that you take before and after drinking but have not tried it yet.

Since I like Crown Royal either on the rocks or with water I try to drink a glass of water between drinks to stay hydrated.

There must be something to that oxygen thing. If i'm not hurting to bad I will go for a run or spend 20-30 mins on the recumbent bike. I find if I get the blood flowing I will feel alot better.

CigDaze 03-30-2003 04:36 PM

You guys already have it covered! ;)

But I usually take two advil at night with a lot of water.
In the morning, a big breakfast with Gatorade does wonders.
I mix my own gatorade and I usually double up on the mix...It helps absorb that water a lot faster...

Someone mentioned pedialite...Basically the same thing. It contains electrolites, which speeds up the rate of water absorbtion.

:cool:

BTW, today is hell...

open87 03-30-2003 05:37 PM

Damn, there are some professional DRINKERS here!

Just go to SUBWAY, get a footlong meatball sub and drink lots of water. Laying around just prolongs it, you gotta get moving!

glassdave 03-30-2003 09:36 PM

a good high quality multi vitamin an a bunch of water or gatoraide the night before works every time. sometimes i will throw in a few advils if i think its gonna be a big one :rolleyes: but im not much for over the counter meds. rather use homeopathic stuff. i will hafta try the oxygen thing though. :cool:

an this is an area i have put alot of research into :D :D

mcollinstn 03-30-2003 09:40 PM

AA is for those who WANT to quit.
All we're looking for here is a hangover remedy...

As has been mentioned, Tylenol (acetominophen) and alcohol are hard on the liver. More specifically, the combination is actually a liver POISON. Even small amounts of alcohol in the blood react aggressively with acetominophen. I got the bloodwork result sheets to prove it (along with a little scar on my ribcage where they stuck a 6" long tube into my liver for a sample).

Aspirin (most effective), or Advil (ibuprofen) are NOT a liver poison in the presence of alcohol.

With this in mind, before packing it in after a hard night, it is extremely helpful to take 2 or 3 aspirin or advil along with 2 or 3 full glasses of water. Keep some water by the bed so you can drink more if you wake during the night.

In the morning, take 2 more and drink water. As soon as you can, get some fat in your belly (as was mentioned, a Big Mac works well, or a fried egg and cheese sandwich with mayonnaise).

Gatorade or Pedialyte is not as good as straight water unless you have been throwing up. Throwing up purges you of electrolytes that Gatorade will replace. Simply being drunk does not upset the electrolyte balance, it just sucks a bunch of water from all of the cells in your body. Good old tap water will work to replace it.

Happy drinking.

thisistank 03-30-2003 09:49 PM

Next time, wake up about 3 hours before you are actually going to wake up and take 2 advils and 2 dramameans. Works like a charm every time!!

by the way.....No one likes a quiter!!:D :D :D

OBNOXUS21 03-30-2003 10:56 PM

So are you guys like investors in these pharmaceutical companies or what? ;)

Agreed........being active like working out helps a lot. I am actually fortunate enough not to be cursed with the hangover virus. Only when I have lots of the hard stuff does it hurt. For that cure I have a day of sleeping followed by a shower with that girl in my bed :) :) :)
But only if I didn't piss her off the night before ;)

THRILLSEEKER 03-30-2003 11:15 PM

yeah you guys can say (stay active) but face it a nap on the couch or in the stabbin cabin feels so much better;) :crazy:

HOUSTONPROP 03-30-2003 11:30 PM
