ru-21

[sglazier]

I saw this in my local chemist last week. Has anybody tried it out? What were the results? thanks

Is it not a sign asking Are You 21? They have a sign in our local club that says ru-21 and if you don't look it you won't get in. If not and it is actually a suplement or medicine then all i have done is simply waste your time, sorry.

sorry ICEMANSAV, I was being far too ambiguous, RU-21 is a new product, take one pill if you are out on a heavy night, it promises, and you will not have a hangover however much you drink. I read about it months ago and it sounded like a con, so I was surprised to see it above the counter at the chemist.

Ive tried it and I can honestly say It made no difference at all,In fact Im sure I felt worse! Its an american product but apparenly it was invented by the K.G.B for their spys.So the vodka didnt effect them to much when they were having a one to one with there counterparts in the west.

PS the Ru21 refers to not being able to drink in the U.S under 21.

I have tried them and they work. Whether it is placebo I cant say

[GucciGal]

Yep, two mates of mine tried it and they said it didn't work for them. Maybe it just works better on some rather than everyone.

I was told you'd have to take one per unit of alcohol you drank.  Personally I'd not be too happy popping little pills in a nightclub in case the bouncers wanted a word with me!  You might be able to prove they were only anti-hangover pills, but that ain't much use when you're outside in the rain and your mates are partying away inside. 

 

Considering a glass of water alternated between pints is meant to do the trick, or about half an ocean's worth of water when you get home, I'd stick to that.  It might make you wee like a racehorse but it's cheaper!!! :-p

try milk thistle instead.

taking paracetamol before going out also helps, don't leave it til you get home, the earlier you take it in teh evening the more it helps.  At least it does for my mum and i.

Words fail me morrisonker! Painkillers + alcohol = not good combination.  Fine for the morning after, but not before or during the night out!!

i agree with ICEMANSAV, try Milk Thistle. I always have some in a glass of water the next morning (along with a stodgy breakfast!) and it always makes me feel better. I've never tried it before i go to bed though, to see if that helps, as i am far too drunk to do anything other than fall asleep! I think Milk Thistle is meant to help clear the toxins (in this case the alcohol) from your body faster.

I always drink tonnes of water when i get in this dilutes the alcohol enough to see me not feeling too rough in the morning.......
