Yep.
But if the hangover is really bad, nothing helps me, but time. Usually, 4 pm is the magic time when I feel human again if I'm really hung.

2 liters of saline solution with 2 doses of vitamin B administered through a vein. pure oxygen respirator and a nice soft pillow to pass out on. works every time.

i get migranes which maybe worse than a bad hangover....if i'm drinking and forget to take the 4 motrin and water before bed, i'll get one in the middle of the night and it'll last between 4 and 10 hrs....got one thursday night about 1am...after vomiting all night and all day, i finally had the strength to get out of bed at 2pm Friday and eat some ice cream..the cold helps constrict the blood vessels and helps the head/coats the stomach...then for me, pizza and a coke followed by copious amounts of Gatorade to replenish fluids...

Instead of Gatorade, I find that Pedialyte, or a generic equivalent, works better- less sugar, which just makes you jumpy, adn more water.
I'm with greg, for a bad hangover, there is no cure except time. Advil Cold and Sinus can help a little for me as it has Ibu and psuedowhatever but sleep cures all.
and i feel your pain Sev, i was in your shoes almost all day yesterday. Although, i managed to drag my ass to the golf course around 4 and sweated out whatever was left of the poison.

you know, certain, but not all physical activities seem to help me quite a bit. Skiing will help cure a hangover real well. As well taking a dip the ocean.

Cranberry juice and what he said.
Saturday I had too much to drink and put myself to bed at 7:00. The next day I had a hard time remembering what had happened between about 4:30 and 7:00...but no hangover. I think that's kinda messed up.

Starting to look like the AZ hangover cure consensus is a decent volume of a sugary liquid, something somewhat on the greasy side to eat, and rest/time

I usually cut my gatorade 50/50 with water...
A carryover from fencing where I found gatorade too sweet to drink during long tournaments, but needed the sugars and electrolytes to keep moving...
Easier to find than pedialyte too.

Try either G50 - basically 1/2 the sugar as regular gatorade and still has all the electrolytes, or Powerade Zero - 0 calories and just basically flavored electrolyte infused water (I'm personally partial to their orange flavor

Interesting... I don't fence that much anymore... And the club generally just has regular Gatorade, but I'll keep it in mind.

we switched to the low sugar Gatorade about a year ago. Love the Grape. Don't enjoy regular gatorade nearly as much as the lighter stuff.

I love that this thread keeps delivering! May need these tips again after celebrating the end of the 1st week of classes this Thurs.
There's a less sugar, more natural version of a Gatorade-type drink but the name eludes me right now... I'm not a fan of the really sweet stuff normally either and rarely drink Gatorade, but Vitamin water could be useful. More tolerable. I found my ibuprofen, too, so I'll be prepared next time.
Though seeing as I was queasy for 3 days after last time, who knows. The thought of liquor right now is still pretty unappealing...

Fluid replacement 1st - I usually start with a sports drink (and if I had. Something still resembling coherence before I went to bed the night before I would have already put down most of a bottle of powerade/Gatorade then). Then once I've "improved" from a state where I feel like I might
Thy being said, the previously mentioned "hair of the dog" got me through many a weekend in college - but now 20 years later, i'm just not sure my body could survive back to back "bad" nights anymore

My hard-partying anesthesiologist friend claims water is mostly useless and will sometimes make you more nauseous. He says if you have all day, from a chemical standpoint, the best way is hair of the dog(s), bc what you are doing is really weening yourself away from the alcohol, slowly. So slowly sipping 3 drinks over the course of 6 hrs is the best way, but not always practical.
For a practical cure, he directs 1) sports drinks (specifically excluding Vitamin Water, unless they have electrolyte versions I haven't seen), and recommends cutting them with some water if its to sweet. 2) Ibuprofen. I prefer brand name Advil, I think it works better, but thats probably psychosomatic. 3) Caffeine. A lot of caffeine. 4) Whatever food you can stomach that will settle your stomach.
If you can get it, Alka Seltzer Wake-Up Call works well too. I think it is basically 1+2+3 (salts, ibuprofen, caffeine) in a single tablet. My friends all swear by it, but I get a little too jacked from the caffeine for some reason.

Hair of the dog and sleep are the only things that work for me.
