I find Alka Seltzer is the best thing for headaches - whether it's a migraine, a hangover or just stress. Being dissolved in a fizzy buffered mix, it doesn't irritate my stomach and acts quickly. Teamed with an anti-nausea medicine (Buccastem) it deals well with my migraine headaches, when anything with codeine in makes me puke and paracetamol doesn't do anything. But it's not always easy to buy! Ordering from ChemistDirect was easy and everything came promptly.
