Weekend is not just about spending time with the family eating barbeques together, but it is also about getting drunk for some. Concerts and other music festivals that are held to celebrate the momentous event in the U.S. are filled with booze to make the fun go round and round.

But after all the fun experienced with the long weekend time spent, what could be the best drink for a hangover? Many say that it is often found in the paediatric department of the pharmacy: Pedialyte.

So how does Pedialyte help hang overs? Just like Gatorade, experts say that its original purpose is to replace the fluid and electrolytes lost in your body due to either vomiting or diarrheal problems. And to serve as hangover cure, many just go buy a packet of the product to add and mix with 8 ounces of water. Others find it best when cold and consumed for every four hours.

It rehydrates the body that can eventually decrease the symptoms of a bad hangover. Others attest though that it can be the best cure for a hangover only if you had a maximum of ten drinks. If you have consumed more than that, then the popular cure may still not work.

Even musician Jason Isbell shared in an interview that he also depends on Pedialyte as his own cure for the popular after-effect of overdrinking alcoholic beverages. Neil McShane Wulharf, a Slate writer added though that if the Pedialyte is turned to 'freezer pop' then the more effective it can be.

Medical doctors claimed that it is not the dehydration that makes anyone who binged on drinking alcohol feel sick but the toxins that are consumed by the body.
