Ever try it? I did this weekend. First time was on Saturday and it was a pill and he gave me some sort of energy drink with it. Next time was the next day and instead of a pill it was a miniature bottle of maybe the same thing. Don't know the name of it. It worked great. I didn't necessarily have a headache, but there was pressure. Took it away and woke me up. The second time, it seemed stronger. Maybe like a cough medicine effect. Or Contact C deal. I don't like taking medicine and I probably won't take this one again. I don't think it's really that good for you. I just asked the guy what I could take. This was in Itaewon at the pharmacy.

The pill was triangular shaped. And pinkish. The second dose with the mini bottle made me feel kind of weird.

I've tried a few. There is one called Thank You Gold that has four pills inside the cap of the bottle and the drink tasted like honey. The little can with a picture of some Korean doctor on the front works pretty good but it's 5000 won a can. Anyone know if you can get that stuff in bulk? They make great gifts for your friends back home.

I've found nothing works better than eating cheese dong cass and a few pints of water before crashing.

For me, drinking more alcohol definitely doesn't work for me and coffee doesn't help. I take a couple of the morning care drinks. They really do the trick. Take one before you sleep and maybe some water and drink another the next day when you wake up. Stock up on Morning Care in the fridge if you drink much.

Have you found any places that sell it by the case?

I probably had that. I started drinking the next day, early afternoon, at the pub and needed something for my head.

Usually hair of the dog is enough, but I can drink a tonne. A tonne.

The "hangover effect" is caused by dehydration. Just drink lots of water and skip the miracle cures, they don't work.

I have spoken...prostrate yourself before my avatar.

It's hard to actually drink water while drinking, but you're right. Sometimes I drink cider or water. I think when I drink heavy, I probably get near the 30 drink figure. That includes shooters, etc.
