I usually pregame the night before by drinking a big glass of water (or three) just before bed. Seems to work; haven't had a hangover in ages.

The best. Hangover cause by dehydration and electrolyte imbalances right? Answer: rehydrate and replace all the stuff you peed out already.

I second the "as much water as possible" before bed, and I include a good multivitamin. Works 9/10

I mix Gatorade with water ( about 50/50) and drink a couple glasses before bed.

Pedialyte

Agreed , but I usually swap the tylenol for ibuprophen... I like my liver.

You can get drunk, you just have to be smart about it. Drink plenty of water between alcoholic drinks, make sure you eat well first, and if you're doing extended drinking, eat every few hours.

First time I got drunk was at an overnight drinking party with about 60 guests. There was only 1 hangover the next morning, and that was because she wouldn't eat. There was no chance of drunk driving by the guests, the keys were collected at the door, and there was a tent village set up in the back yard. No one was leaving unless they were sober, or on foot.

I just drink Caesars. Works every time.

now that's a party...... I thought they stopped having those in the 70s

drink water during the night, eat carb food during the night, multi vitamin before you sleep (with a full glass of water) and lastly, water and pancakes for breakfast the next morning.

and if you still wake up with a hangover, zofran, more water, sunglasses, and go back to sleep

If I didn't hydrate before bed and it's real bad I'm getting some pedialyte. Alternatively the "anti cramp juice" I make for the hockey players works alright, it's a 20oz Gatorade with a 30ml cup of salt dropped in. Nasty.

Zofran odt should be over the counter.

I just get a 64oz Gatorade, drink about 1/4 of it, top it off with plain water, and drink the rest. Then off to bed I go. I've NEVER had a hangover when I do that. Making sure that you eat and drink water during the alcohol consumption event does help with mitigating the effects later, but I have also found that proper rehydration with electrolytes does work really, really well.

Store bought Gatorade works... but it's actually too strong. It needs to be slightly diluted to bring it to a concentration that actually quickly absorbable (at least as fast as water) and will do the job. If you've ever "reconstituted" the Gatorade that's to be used with the 5 or 10 gallon jugs, you'll note that stuff is very diluted compared to the store stuff...

 

[Akulahawk]

Zofran odt should be over the counter.

Zofran is good for stopping the heaving and the nausea... but properly rehydrating before bedtime is what'll prevent you from having a really grumpy morning. In other words: no need for the Zofran!

Beat me to it.

Gentlemen, alcohol makes you soft.

Ladies, alcohol makes your liver fat.

Back in the day we used to hit up the Air Force cargo crews for some time on their oxygen systems. Cleared it up in no time.
