4. Use what the professionals use. When paramedics respond to an emergency involving alcohol poisoning, they administer a form of activated charcoal to soak up toxins from the system. Clever entrepreneurs have repackaged this treatment as a way to prevent hangovers. Just make sure you take it before, during, and after your night of binging, or you’ll negate the effect.

5. Look good, even if you feel awful. If the best man lacked the sense to schedule your bachelor party sooner than the night before your wedding, it won’t matter how you feel as long as you look good in the photos. Use a balm to smooth out those puffy eyes and you’ll look like you spent the night alone and asleep, you naughty, naughty groom.
