    lifeline (hangover defence)

    got a free sample (2 tablets)of this in the chemist yesterday:

    first of all the good news.

    the ingredients in it mop up the alcohol in your system but does'nt stop the "buzz".

    you just take the tablets within an hour of starting to drink.


    bads news//nly recommended for a "moderate" nights drinking.



    i'll give them a lash next time i'm having a skinfull and report back.

    If it was only a moderate nights drinking, surely you wouldn't need them anyway?

    Fail safe method is 2 pints of water before bed time anyway (biggest problem being to píssed to be arsed)...

      I tried them once.. there so big they're like horse tranquilisers... and they didnt work.......
      Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

          think you're mixing them up with "verve" or similar.

          these are small ,like a headache -tablet size and you can take them with your gargle.

            I've got better as I've got older.... as the hangovers have got worse.

            Looking forward to Sunday morning, after years of muppets telling me my hangovers are caused by smoking, an all day session now I don't anymore should prove it

                That Verve stuff is woeful. Took it once and actually felt worse after it!
                Best thing after a massive session is 2 headache tablets and a pint of
                water before the leaba

                    You must have bladder problems...

                    Anyway, another pint or two on top of 10+ isn't going to make much difference to the amount of fluid....

                      So how old are ya?

                      Smoking doesn't cause a hangover but does make you feel like ****e next day as if you are like me you'd smoke way more when on the tear.

                      A good lie on is the only proper cure. Having kids means I never get one!

                        I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Vitamin B tablets
                        Get them in any chemist.

                        Take one before you go out, and if you want to take another before you hit the pillow. You'll know they're working when you see illuminous yellow pi55.

                        A major cause of the hangover symptoms is vitamin defficiency caused by the alcohol, so you're topping up your vitamins before you hit the drink.


                        Alternatively, hefe-weizens (cloudy wheat beer) haven't had the yeast filtered out. That yeast is full of vitamin B, so the more you drink, the more you're curing your hangover. A kind of a drunken catch 22.
