Have him try to suck on peppermint, or a spoon full of sugar. This is what my grandmother use to have us do when we got the hiccups. At the present time I do not know of any over the counter remedies.
Take Care and Good luck!

This works for me: Hold your breath for about 62 seconds. If the first try fails try it a couple of more times. Hope this helps

Ask your pharmacist.
