Can You Take An Aspirin Right After Drinking Alcohol?

[Deleted member 5487]

If I am drinking some alcohol and want some aspirin before going to sleep. Can I take one while still drunk?

Would it hurt to pop a pill minutes before heading home?

Dissolved with baking soda and/or glycine would be better.

I do it sometimes, no problem. If I drank too much then I use another combo : 600mg NAC, B-Vitamins, 1 gram Vitamin C. Eases the hangover a lot.

Nice - have you ever tried theanine to reduce hangover? Works like a champ.

Increasing either increases the risk of ulceration and bleeding.

some people take valium then get drunk I wonder how more dangerous that is then alcohol alone?

No, never! And never heard about it's use for hangovers before. What's the suspected mechanism of its anti hangover properties?

All I know is when I get Peat drunk, it saves the day. (Not sure what its course of action is?)

NAC does the opposite if you use it after drinking alcohol. If you want to have a protective function then you must ingest it before drinking!

Hmm... Why you say that? My experience is the following :
- If I take it before it's counterproductive because I have to drink more to get drunk.
- If I take it as soon as I get back home while still drunk, then it eases the hangover
- If I take it the day after... I don't remember what happens LOL I think it's not effective that's why I learned to take it before bed

For me, I find that drinking roughly half the amount of alcohol in water prevents hangovers. So, 2 glasses of wine would be 1 glass of water. However, when it's something fairly modest like 2 glasses of wine I don't need the water -- the ratio comes into play for higher amounts of alcohol. But I also take Energin and vitamin C when I can, too.

I experienced bad stomach cramps for a week after a few days of drinking and taking 2 aspirins before bed.

“Artichokes can also be beneficial after a night of drinking. Although there isn’t a lot of scientific data on this use, some individuals swear by eating artichokes or taking artichoke extract in order to ease the aftermath of alcohol. One reason may be the high levels of vitamin B6 in the artichoke counteract the depletion that drinking alcohol causes.”
