Don't drink in the first place.

hangovers are usually due to low blood sugar and dehydration, all caused by alcohol.
Drink lots of water and a sugar drink, pepsi is normally the best, also have some food with loads of carbs to keep your blood sugar up and stop it crashing later, a fry up the morning after isn't just a modern myth, it does help, sandwiches etc good too. Try aspirin as a pain killer, thins the blood a little and if you know anyone with some oxygen, try a little of that too. Seriously though, go and drink a couple of pints of water straight off and go to the shop for food and cola.

Drink a glass of water for ever drink you drink. Hangovers are usually caused by dehydration, since alcohol is a very strong diuretic. In addition, have a glass of water before you go to sleep with an aspirin or two. It will help!!

This formula was told to me by our Corpsman (I was in the USCG at the time). It has worked every time for my alcoholic ex-hubby.
2-3 ibuprofen tablets (for the pain & swollen arteries in your head)
3-4 activated charcoal tablets (can be found over the counter in most drugstores, not the stuff you grill with)
Wash them down with a room temp flat ginger ale (for the sugar) in about an hour you will feel better, not great, not perfect, just better.
Other than that, a little restraint before hand is a wonderous thing :)...........chin up.

Mix up a drink of egg (raw if you trust your brand to be free of salmonella - eliiminate it if you don't), protein powder, and tomato juice. Knock it back like medication. The protein powder should start to work in about 30 minutes to quiet the worst down.
If you do this regularly, check out www.hufa.org as it may explain to you why your body really likes to drink, despite the after effects.

Drink some water
Take alka seltzer or similar (alka seltzer is painkiller plus bicarbonate of soda)
Try and get some sleep
When you wake up, drink more water.
Then eat something bland and filling: baked potato or cereal or banana or toast.
Next time you fancy a drink, pace yourself. Eat before you go drinking, don't drink too much, and have some water before you go to bed.

The best thing to do is when you wake up go to McDonald's and get a breakfast sandwich then go to a store and get a bottle of Gatorade, then take 4 ibuprofen and you will feel MUCH better.
