Lots of water and soda crackers. Though I hardly ever get hangovers.

Drink plenty of water before you go to bad and pop an asprin or two. Gatorade the next day, and crackers and ginger ale or sprite if you have upset stomach

Like my dad used to tell people with hangovers "What you need to do is take another drink."

Bite the dog that bit you.

That's how you get a multiple day hangover. :p

Best remedy is lots of water and lots of sleep. A valium helps too(but don't drink booze after taking one)

A 32 oz. Gatorade and a couple aspirin after waking up and it's completely gone for me, no matter how much I over did it the night before.

Asprin or Ibuprofen isn't great for a liver that just took a pounding the night before. I usually drink gatorade, eat something greasy and just feel like crap most of the day. To think, I didn't even get hangovers until my mid 20's...

Not necessarily true. I have used a Bloody Mary or two to settle a bad stomach + headache after a night of boozing.

Drink like 30+oz of water before you go to sleep. I would advise against doing any kind of asprin or painmed before going to sleep though, as I hear when coupled with alcohol they do some really nasty stuff to your stomach.

If you drink enough water and have been drinking hard liquores you should be fine. I usually am if I remember enough water. I'm gonna go find me some of that right now...

Just learn your limit and don't drink past that point from then on. I learned it the hard way after throwing up in my friends room with his dad just across the hall, lol.

Exactly. Water before bed = best cure.

If you're asking because you plan on getting blitzed in the near future, make sure you drink lots of water before you go to bed as others have said. I usually go with about 750 mL (24 oz.) of Gatorade, and am fine the next day.

If you're asking because you have a hangover now, drink some Gatorade and eat something light. Then a few hours later eat something heavier that has a bit of grease to it.

Before you go to bed after drinking, have either a large gatorade/powerade or a pint of water with a vitamin B complex. Your hangovers will be non-existant or extremely mild if you do that.
