Jan 11, 2005: On December 3, 2003, I posted
a message in my web journal about the Asian Blush, which quickly resulted in over 100 very-informative comments. This forum is intended to be an information source for those of us looking for information about why we turn red when we drink alcohol.

In the conclusion thread by StopRanting (thanks for it) it says 40mg Famotidine is recommended for my weight, although the direction for Pepcid says no more than 2 pills (20mg) per 24 hours. Is it ok to take 4x10mg pills anyway?
Almost everyone here seem to b solely concerned about the redness that occurs. My main problem while drinking with the Asian Flush is the extreme nausea and headache, which is far more worse than the flush. I throw up before even noticing the effects of the alcohol. Now I haven't tried Prepcid, but can someone who has tell me if it helps against the nausea?
