1 thing I discovered on the weekend was as follows >

I took my 40mg of Pepcidine 1 hrs and 30 mins before my first BEER, no red face
2nd, 3rd & 4th BEER still no red face & feeling GOOD !!!

I was then seated for a meal at a function, eating the meal while drinking my 5th BEER ,

then I started to feel that old feeling coming back again !!!! and sure enough someone said " why are you red "?
SHIT  !!!     I popped another pill and stopped drinking

and then started to get a headache BUT the red face was gone in about 40 minutes ( it was red but not as red as I have been I discovered Pepcidine  )

my conclusion to this is

You cant start drinking and then eat..............!!!!!!   as my theory is the food you are eating effects the Pepcidine effectiveness



Anyone else have a comment ????

or ways to get around this??

I wish this forum / website was around 15 years ago !!

I am an  Australian 1/16 Asian 32 y.o male ,

At 17-18 y.o I stopped drinking, it wasn't worth the questions about my bright red face. ( and my head and heart pounding like I was running in the Olympics )

Peer pressure always got the better of me though , so I used to ( pretend I was drinking ) i.e. I used to go to the toilet an tip more than half of my drink down the toilet, I did this most nights I went out, little did my friends know that over the course of the night I probably only consumed about 1 drink and not the 8-9 bottles / cans they thought I drank

After reading about Pepcid on this forum I tried it out last Friday night WOW !!!!  taking everyone's advise on their posts the do's & don'ts

I took 1 40 mg tablet of Pepcidine ( Australian version ) waited 1 hour and 20 mins then prayed to God they work for me !!

first drink rum & coke 4.9 % , rushed to the mirror I looked okay !
second drink rum & coke 4.9% , mirror check again still no sign of redness
Third & forth still okay ......and for the first time in my life was under the influence of alcohol with no red face & no headaches !!!
I thought I would stop at 4 drinks as I dint want to push things !!! ( yet )
I am happy I can have a social drink now and not worry about my face

BUT I still have a little voice in my head asking " is this really safe?"
I don't intend on drinking daily or weekly , just to go to a wedding or work function and have a couple of drinks and not go RED !!!

Thank you all for you posts and comments
