Yup. Drink a "Vodka surprise". For this drink you take a normal glass. You fill it to 1/5 with Vodka. Then you pour in 1/5 of cough-mixture (I think anyone is suitable). Add 1 Aspirin and some pepper. Add 1/5 orange juice. Then again 1/5 Vodka and fill up with water (not soda!!!).
Drink it at once.That's not a joke - I know it sounds weird, it tastes like hell and it's definitely not very healthy, but I tried it and it helped. I can also guarantee that you won't suffer any side-effects. (Although your **** may be a bit fluent for two days.) Normally you make it for another person and DON'T tell him/her what's in it - that's why it's called "Vodka surprise".
Get well and if you're brave enough, try my drink. I took it, too and am still around.
