So there is a 95% change of my bachelors being this weekend and a 50% chane of it being next weekend! Can anyone give me some tips on how to survive this. Note that all my friends are hard drinkers so passing out is inevitable.

Is there anything I could take before the bachelors to let me somehow survive this onslaught of drinks and perhaps random strippers ? I know Essentiale helps your liver cope but I need homemade remedies for how to not passout 3 hours into the bachelors.
 
A couple of TC's can go a long way to saving your arse.

Be careful though, if you're not used to the heavy boozing. I'd refuse any nasty concoctions (I'm a beer and wine guy- spirits kill me). What are your mates like? Keen for a jol or looking to get you broken?

Hope it's more fun than pain ;)
 
Greasy vetkoek, LOTS of syrup and cheese on it. Make sure your stomach is full. If you survive the evening, drink lots of water before you go to bed.

Stash some cash in your undies.

so there is a 145% chance you will be having a bachelors :p

but seriously: a glass of water between drinks
 
Take some N-Acetylcysteine and Vitamin C

Quote: "The pharmacological effect (i.e., intoxication or drunkenness) is not inhibited by vitamin C or cysteine, but the toxic effect (e.g., the hangover, nervous irritability, swimming difficulty) is inhibited. This suggests that, with alcohol, you can “have your cake and eat it too.”" Read the dosage information here: http://www.ceri.com/alcohol.htm
 
Drink water between drinks. If they give you grief about this, then just drink some tap water every time you go to the bathroom.

Use a glass that is opaque...it messes with the others' ability to judge how much you are drinking.

Very important to eat. Preferably something protein & fat heavy. Eat beforehand & a snack about halfway through the drinking session. Also drink some water beforehand so that you go into it hydrated...but not too much else you'll plush out minerals & stuff making the hang-over worse.

If feasible down 0.5L water before crashing w/ some rehydrant (pharmacy has it) powder in it. This might be difficult if you're unconscious.

If you need to take painkillers for hang-over, stick to dosages recommend. Both alcohol & painkillers place a heavy strain on the liver.

Its just aspirin & caffeine.
 
Eat a lot of Vetkoek and Mince. The fat of the Vetkoek will increase your resistance to alcohol and Mince pukes a lot easier...

PS: deepening on how your bachelors turns out, you will very quickly realise who are your "friends" and who are your "pals"
 
Don't go, you'll probably do something you would regret. Have an evening out with your fiance (that will impress her) and let your mates have it on their own.
 
Take 3 shots of brandy just before you start drinking so it gives your stomach a layering delaying the alcohol absorption process.
 
Good luck dude.
Try some essential or prohep before you drink.
Works for me sometimes.
 
Go get some charcoal tablets, some stuff the use when people OD. Work like a charm.... Just watch out, the stronger and more prepared you make yourself, the more you gonna drink!!!!!!
