Step 4Cope with the morning after, part one: rehydrate yourself

Carefully now, placing one foot in front of the other, make your way to the kitchen and follow these steps:

  • Drink a large glass of water, then take an appropriate dosage of aspirin or other non-prescription painkiller with another big glass of water.
  • Got any juice around? Drink that also.

Caffeine dehydrates your body, so stick with juice, water and milk.

Note: Non-prescription pain relievers can be tough on your system when combined with alcohol. Thus, you should take them in the morning (rather than before you go to bed). This will allow enough time for most of the alcohol to leave your system in between.
