To ask for hangover prevention?

[Crashtestdumdum]

I have drunk quite a quantity of gin.

I don’t want to feel like death tomorrow.

I am currently fizzing a berocca in a pint of water before I go to bed.

Should I have added a second tablet?

Is there anything else I can do to be my future friend?

Two paracetamol and a pint of water works for me. (Before bed)

Lemsip is my hangover cure.

Keep drinking water and then drink some more. Also eat some cheese and crackers to slow alcohol absorbtion.

2 paracetamol

Cold/flu capsules or powder. Have a pint of water by your bed and drink as much as you can when you inevitably wake in the night.

DH swears by pineapple juice.

2 ibuprofen as well should help with the head. Although I find gin gives me a hangover for days (probably showing my age there 😂)

More water. And something carby. But mainly water.

ooh I like the sound of cheese and crackers. Unfortunately only have babybel so not sure that would do the trick.

Will add two paracetamol to my berocca, thanks!

As above, and a small snack to soak it up before bed helps I think (eg rice cake/toast and butter)

Toast with thick layer of marmite, pint of water and 2 nurofen now. Salt and vinegar discos and orange lucozade in the morning.

You need plenty of water and some food now. Full fat yoghurt or cheese are ideal.

Elderflower cordial. It's better in the gin though 😅

I was going to say, on seeing your title, not to drink, but I guess it’s too late for that.

Food! And have painkillers ready by the bed

Salt and liquid

Definitely have a snack before bed, usually prevents a hangover for me

Forget all the above.

You need diaorlyte.

One sachet in water before bed, you'll be right as ninepence int morning.

I drink lucazade sport or irn bru after a night out. Works great.

Yes unfortunately 😵‍💫

This, I swear it's got magical powers.

Two paracetamol and a pint of water with a sachet of dioralyte plus carbs is probably your best bet!

Electrolyte sachets. One before bed and one in the morning. I use Vidrate by dioralyte would work and I’m sure there are other brands.

Avoid painkillers, your liver is already busy processing alcohol and doesn’t need any more stress.

A strategic cheese on toast seems to work for me!

Rehydration salts. As you won’t have these, dissolve a small pinch of salt in a big glass of water. Be careful not to overdo it as this will cause diarrhoea. Then drink something sugary like coke full sugar.

Rehydration salts recipe - 6 teaspoons sugar. 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add to 1 litre of cool boiled water.

NB I double the salt quantity for myself as I need more salt than the average person.

So far I have berocca, paracetamol, have eaten some spring rolls and am going to raid the cupboard for dioralite (sp?). Thanks for all the tips, I‘ll report back in the morning
