Hangover cure

45 replies

With the party season coming up I’m interested to see if anyone has any hangover cure suggestions (obviously the not drinking one is the top suggestion 😂)

I’m not normally sick the next day, it’s more the tiredness that makes me feel rough.

Any suggestions/ tips welcome.

Heinz tomato soup (really!)

There isn't one that will make you feel right, but a pint of water plus another pint with a rehydration tablet, with some ibuprofen before bed.

More rehydration solution, a banana and a run in the morning, followed by a fry up and a shower.

Definitely a fry up or bacon sandwich and a large cup of tea 🤪

Oxygen. As in 100% oxygen. Works every time.

Loads and loads of water and as much sleep as possible.

A hefty dose of creatine

Rehydration tablet
2 ibuprofen
Chippy chips with loads of salt and vinagar
Afternoon nap
Saag aloo and peshwari naan when you wake up.

Thats my usual plan.

Virgin Mary, as spicy as you like.

Celestialmoods · 07/12/2025 16:37

Orange juice, a banana, and salt and vinegar crisps.

MagpiePi · 07/12/2025 16:40

A bag of prawn cocktail crisps and a can of Tizer used to do the trick for me when I was a student. Also thinking of something disgusting to make myself sick helped if it was a bad one.

Night nurse when you go to bed. Will help you sleep in.

CeeJay26 · 07/12/2025 16:53

Coconut water, great for dehydration.

EnigmaticIcelandShopper · 07/12/2025 16:54

An orange Lucozade, the fizzy one.

bizkittt · 07/12/2025 16:55

Sleep as much as you can.

ThroughTheRedDoor · 07/12/2025 16:57

Pink migraleive (the anti sickness element is the lifesaver). Water. Hash browns/stodge. Back to bed. Up 2 hours later, a shower and a coffee. Right as rain!

Yeah me to 2 glasses of wine and im ready for bed, 3 glasses and I am ill for 2 days! It is ridiculous.

Willowskyblue · 07/12/2025 17:09

Take a sachet of dioralyte before you go out and one when you get home. It makes a big difference - also good for long haul flights.

Yes, 2 is my limit. it's not worth the pain.
On the other hand, it's nice having a good sleep and a clear head in the morning!

Waitingfordoggo · 07/12/2025 17:19

I tried for years to find a hangover cure. Some of the things mentioned above would momentarily take my mind off my misery for a few minutes but not a single one ever cured my hideous hangs. 😔 (So I just avoid booze now.)

This is true.

There is only one true cure for a hangover and it is a slippery slope. More alcohol. It literally works like a dream. Not to be recommended.
