I went to a party last night and I drank...quite a lot.I mean a lot!No beer,just whiskey and vodka.Hopefully,I didn't get that wasted.I got a cab and went home.To my surprise,I could talk clearly,calculate etc. The only sign that I was drunk was the smell. Well,after I got home I fell asleep almost instantaneously.Now,I woke up with the most severe headache of my life.On top of that,my throat is sore and my lips are all cracked. I know for a fact that the hangover is merely the sign of the severe dehydration.As for treating it,the method I use is to take 2-3 glasses of water and 1-2 headache pills just before sleep.It works like a charm. What methods do you use to fight off the hangover?

I used to drink Vitamin B before going for drinking spree. It might help you not to have hang over.

The B vitamins are neural vitamins,so I could see the reason in taking those.It may further protect your brain to intruders and toxins.

I was watching show called Myth Busters and they were trying to decide what is the best hang-over cure over the many usual stuff out there. One of the most effective was slapping. Yes, actually slapping. They shows that our senses comes to us fastest when we are hit. Now, I don't advice you on getting yourself slapped or anything... I think a good sleep will do.

Slapping indeed seems to make me feel more alive.I think this is about all you can do after you get your hangover.

My old pal told me, the secret of not having hang over is to drink Vitamin B. I tried once, it is effective. You can try to take this supplement prior to your drinking spree with friends.
