| Need Hiccup Remedy
Help! My friend has had the hiccups non stop for the last 6 hours! I just told him to eat a spoonful of peanut butter, hoping that will help. He's tried water...it didn't help. He's getting pretty fed up now.  What's your tried and true hiccup cures?

Have two: 1) a teaspoonful of sugar 2) rub/massage the soft palate of your mouth (soft part of the roof of your mouth) w/ a Qtip for a few seconds. Now, if you have a sensitive gag reflex, this will probably trigger the gag reflex--just a warning.

Yes they finally stopped. The peanut butter stopped them.. but I am keeping this list of remedies for him. He is easy to get them and hard to stop them. He was really fed up after 6 hours! I bet his stomach will be sore tomorrow. Ouch!

stick a knife in the water and drink it. That has always worked for me. Also the paper towel over the cup of water works well too.
