Suggest Treatment For Withdrawal Symptoms After Binge Drinking
Question: I went on a drinking spree for the last seven days.... Now am having withdrawal symptoms...eyes are watering frequently....sweating profusely....and urine is crimson in Colour....dry mouth....what is the best remedy for this hangover....have been drinking water heavily
Brief Answer:
Chlordizepoxide
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
Although water intake is essential but it is not enough to control withdrawal symptoms after binge drinking over a period of one week.
The better alternative is Chlordizepoxide provided your liver function tests are normal and there is no liver enlargement.
In case liver function is compromised lorazepam is better alternative.
Since both the medications are prescription only you need to see a doctor in your city.
In addition it is important to take multivitamins especially thiamin.
I hope this helps you.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for my future patients.
