The Afternmath... whats your best hang over cure?

[LA1982]

I got through reading sidekicknicholas' trip report and one of his statements caught my eye

"Rolled out of bed to make myself a hangover cure: 1 pedialyte packet into a powerade, 3 Ibuprofens, 1 pepto pill"

I thought this would be interesting to bring up. I know every individual is different. But was curious of any specific remedies or what works for all you guys/gals. Thanks.

I drink a bottle of water before I go to sleep and wake up free and clear. I have a bad habit of mixing liquors and beer; shiner , jameson shots, long island, patron. As long as i drink water before i go to bed i can usually wake up around 6 to go run and not have a problem. Im pretty young though so my recovery is still top notch.

1 pedialyte packet into a powerade, 3 Ibuprofens, 1 pepto pill

Whats funny is the FDA recently approved a hangover "cure" called "BlowFish" and the ingredients in this new "cure" are eerily similar to the remedy above....I'd substitute the powerade for a water or smartwater...

Hydration. Water and pedialyte.

[boags]

Bloody Mary. 3 or 4 of those and I'm right as rain again.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Slam a water every other drink. As ur leaving bathroom fill up your empty glass with tap water and drink while u order next drink.

Water, ibuprofen and.....burnt toast. Seriously. The more burnt the better. Plus you know, a bloody mary at the buffet in the morning. Little hair of the dog.

This is solid advice that works. Since hangovers are basically dehydration with some extras thrown in.

I am never hangover in Vegas thanks to ''hair of the dog'' Mimosas, Blood Mary, Cold Beer in the shower does the job and keep drinking lightly all day (this might be different story for pool parties lol) and do your power drinking late night!

First day back at your job, now that's a hangover !!!

I keep drinking through the whole trip. Not the healthiest advice, but damn it works every time.

Drink a ton of water before you pass out. I also will drink some Airborne on those really rough nights and I wake up feeling amazing.

I agree with everyone that getting water in before you pass out is the best solution... but thats more like hang-over prevention.... sometimes if I hit the bed and have the spins really bad I'll go to the bathroom and make myself puke... usually that helps for a better tomorrow.

The OP is looking for a cure, to me that means you're already in full blown hang over mode from mistakes the night before.

... my usual is like the OP stated... recently I've been using sprite for my pedialyte mixer - the bubbles seem to help calm my stomach. Honestly though pedialyte is amazing stuff... except I've grown addicted to it, anytime I know I'm going to be drinking hard I try and have some close at hand.

[darksideofjae]

Do you guys recommend the Pedialyte Packets over the premade big bottle stuff.

I have to agree with this. Just keep drinking and then make sure you have a "recovery" day off from work after you get home.
