Hal1 is right but that is a bit drastic.

First of all hydrate mainly because what is causing your discomfort is dehydration caused by drinking to much alcohol.

Old remedy:

Bananas One of the quickest ways to cure a hangover is to make a banana milkshake sweetened with honey. The banana helps calm the stomach, and with the honey, builds up the depleted blood sugar levels. The milk soothes the stomach and rehydrates your system. Bananas are also rich in the important electrolytes, magnesium and potassium, which are severely depleted during heavy drinking.

The eletrolytes are key to replace and feel better.

some sort of pain pills. Preferably 2 vicodins and you will be a lot better. A lot of times going back to sleep helps unless you have to be somewhere.

A bottle of Pedialyte, 2 advils, 2 charcocaps, and some hot and spicy chicken soup. Take a shower and rest. :103631605

its not going to help at this point but next time drink water while you are drinking booze, it might look gay.......but it will prevent these sort of reactions afterwards

I can go through 3 sixpacks without feeling like shit the day after by simply drinking a glass of water every other beer

Yea but you still look like a *** with the water. Be a man, accept your fate.

AlwayzRight I hear that Gatorade AM is key.

I pound about 2 liters of water and try to workout for about 30 minutes. Then spend 10 minutes in a sauna. Sweat out all the booze and then shower. Kill some more water and you'll be golden in an hour.

The best way to beat a hangover is to attack it before you go to bed.

Pound 2-3 large classes of water and pass out. If you're really hammered taking some tylenol/advil/whatever also helps.

Hangovers are due to dehydration, so getting as much water into your system will correct that.

Xanax

Sure they will help a hangover but they don't exactly grow on trees especially in the US where you can only get them with a prescription or take your chances on the street with a drug dealer. Even here is Costa Rica you need a script to buy any in a pharmacy. Also if you are not used to them be careful as they can get you pretty stoned, so give someone your keys until you are straight again. 2 half milligram tablets will do the trick for a non-user.

FYI - Side effects of Xanax may include:
Decreased libido, drowsiness, fatigue, impaired coordination, memory impairment, speech difficulties, weight changes. The drug can be addictive but if only used on rare occasions in your own home where you can rest that should not be a problem. Don't ever use Xanax behind the wheel or even walking in the street is my advice.

I'll take a 1/2 milligram and thats fine. Wil You can walk into a pharmacy here in costa rica and buy them without a script if you know where to go.

As noted above, dehydration is the primary culprit as is a severe loss of Vitamin B due to the high sugar content in most alcohol.

Replacing the Bs with fruit and/or a good supplement pill while banging back about a half gallon of water should do the trick, especially if you've been drinking the water during the course of your alcohol use.

Pain pills (tylenol.advil etc) are useful if you've gone too far without hydrating since a component of dehydration is sore muscles, especially around the neck and shoulders.
