Boozers Rejoice! The World's First Hangover Clinic Is Open For Business

#1 CURE: The clinics promises to ease hangovers with a cocktail of vitamins

But thankfully there might be an alternative to laying in bed, groaning and cramming in a takeaway.

The world's first hangover cure clinic has opened up, but boozers be warned - it's not cheap.

The clinic gives victims of heavy nights out intravenous (IV) fluids with a cocktail of vitamins to get drowsy drinkers

But before you drag yourself out of bed the price tag might be enough to put you off - the cheapest treatments on offer are £66 a go.

#2 SOZZLED: Going overboard on the pints can really take its toll

And £95 will get you an hour's treatment, painkillers to shake off your headache and a dose of oxygen therapy.

Max Petro from the clinic said: 'We've had a lot of people saying, 'I can't drink like I used to. I can't recover like I used to.'

"We're just there to make sure people can get on with their day."

#3 IV: Intravenous drips feed fluids and vitamins into hangover victims

Thankfully the Sydney-based service takes the misery that hangovers can cause very seriously.

Clinic employee Rod Lang said their treatments are a better idea than munching down on junk food to kill the pain.

He said: "As we all know, some hangovers can be terrible and some people can't even get out of bed.

"Having intravenous fluids, that can have benefits.

#4 ON THE LASH: Christmas get-togethers also have their downsides

"As for having something like [McDonalds], that can be debated and that's something that I wouldn't be recommending."

#5 TIPPLE: Those who like a drink could feel fresh as a daisy in the morning

While most of us would self-medicate with greasy food and a lot of water, the "Hangover Clinic" offers patients a choice of cures.

Those who are feeling worse for wear can get an IV drip, some extra vitamins and some pain medication.

Treatments range from 30 minutes to an hour at the Sydney-based clinic.

#6 BOOST: The clinic offers IV drips and vitamins

There has been a mixed reception to the news that a day of a dry mouth and pounding head could be a thing of the past though.

Michael Moore, chief executive of the Public Health Association of Australia told the Sydney Morning Herald: "This encourages people to use alcohol in an entirely inappropriate way and it's something the government should look at very, very carefully."

However members of the public seem far more receptive to the news.

One Twitter user wrote: "Australia opens handover clinic. 200 $ for a full hour session. Honestly, remembering some of the hangovers I survived, that's pretty worth it."
