Here's a simple hiccup cure. Works 90% of the time. Only slightly gross.
First reported in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine (Dec. 23, 1971)

"I know how to cure hiccups. And the cure is almost instantaneous.
... It does not entail contortions to drink out of the wrong side
of a glass. It does not require a confederate to sneak up behind you and pop a paper bag. And it does not involve holding your breath. Just swallow a spoonful of granulated sugar. Dry. That's it.... you'll shudder briefly, but the hiccups will stop.

Next tip: "shaving with butter"

  • have hiccup 3 hour this mornimng stooped for 4hour back again ,,, had surgery yesterday

  • @lance1236451 I had surgery a few months ago and developed hiccups afterward. I'll confess, the cure didn't work on my post-operative hiccups. Had 'em for a couple of days. But they did fade. Hope yours clear up soon.

  • it didnt wooork D:

  • @JohnTheSpider Sorry, JohnTheSpider. Some comments mention an alternative: spoonful of peanut butter.

  • Depends: dignity or relief? Your choice. (oh. And you can do it in secret and not tell anyone)

  • @Compelled2High I even used water to swallow the sugar, And it did the job perfectly!

  • @Compelled2High I just can't belive this... This is fucking insane, they are really gone!!!

    :D

  • Ok. Listen up people..This is fucking crazy.I have been drinking rolling rock beers(maybe 6 or so)then a few cans of steel reserve 211. I don't usually do this from drinking but i developed hiccups. Well i am a very open/strong minded person, while i was listening to music,I just couldn't stop hiccuping. For atleast an hour and wanted to enjoy my last beer before bed, Well typed in"how to cure hiccups"and i found this video. The hiccups was annoying but are now gone thanks to mickeleh! THANKS :D

  • it worked like magic! :)

  • @Becauseoflisa i read your post and my hickups went

  • hey I just clicked on this video and my hiccups left =P

  • Worked for me before I even got the sugar, weird. I had the worst hiccups ever and then when after I watched this video they were gone. I took the sugar anyways just in case. They haven't come back yet.

  • I was about to say "damn, I'm diabetic" in the middle of the video, and then you said, "diabetics, I think that means you" XD
