Maybe up to 50% percent on a lucky day. Also, depends on whether I've recently eaten and stuff like that. Many nights, I've used Pepcid and still had 100% flush.
In case you haven't, try taking it on empty stomach about an hour before drinking.

Yeah, I think that has always been my best bet. I will test that out sometime again this week. Most times, drinking just starts happening around me, and I have no choice but to pop a Pepcid discreetly and stall for 30 minutes at the most. And this usually happens right after my roommates and I come back from dinner.
Update, I take 400mg L-cysteine and 1200mg vitamin C which is double dosage of what's in that article. It works for me. The reason is that the article is for those with normal metabolism rate of alcohol. For those with alcohol flush symptoms, it would require more because of higher level of acetaldehyde release in the system.
Hi. Guys.
Is there anyone heared about KisLip?
Its a kind of madicine that provide ALDH which is must needed enzyme to remove aldehyde. And its said that this madicine contain double amounts of ALDH normal person has.
If you are interested in this.
Search KISLIP on google.

Thanks for bringing this up. I placed an order 2 weeks ago on Amazon dot com and just received it.
It works better than any other pills of this type I've tried. Did it get rid of my AF? Not 100% but more like 80%. I finished 3 servings of drinks in an hour and no headaches or heart palpitation.
This may be the answer until Convivia becomes available to public!
Does Anyone know where to buy KISlip. I tried amazon but found nothing!
Looks like Amazon seller is out of stock. This site has it but price is considerably higher than what I saw on Amazon. :-(
@ Dalmore. You are a trusted member of this site, please let me know how you personally get on with KISlip. Thankyou

I didn't know anything about KISlip until ADcarry mentioned it. I went online, did a search and saw a few retail outlets including Amazon which I ordered from about 3 weeks ago. Now that seller is out of stock for some reason.
As for the effectiveness of KISlip, as mentioned above, it works better than other products of this type I've tried so far (I've tried just about all) but I wish it works better. In other words, it's not 100% effective. Plus it's pricy. :-(
I have wasted money on just about every product that has come out aswell, unfortunately to no avail.
What dose did you have?? And what sort of time arrangement Dalmore??
Each pack has 4 tabs and there are 12 packs in a box I bought. The instruction says take 2 tabs with a glass of water before and after drinking. I took 2 tabs 5 minutes before drinking and 2 more tabs after my 2nd drink. It kind of worked OK and I didn't feel sick like I would have if I drank without any protections. But it didn't feel pleasant either after an hour. After the buzz from alcohol, I felt tired and groggy.
My conclusion is that this isn't par with the reported effectiveness of Convivia or fomepizole.
Hey guys,
I'll definitely be trying KISlip if it ever comes back out on Amazon. I gave up on fomepizole after finding out that I needed to be affiliated with a pharma company or university lab. Pepcid Complete, L-cysteine, and vitamin C will hold me off until then (thanks to Dalmore).
Hey Dalmore,
What do you think of the effectiveness of KISLip with regards to the facial flush? Is it pretty effective in that sense? I have been able to get rid of the rapid heartbeat and nausea with Pepcid Complete/Vit C/L-Cys, but I have not been able to deal with the red face.
Thanks, man.
For me, it got rid of about 80% of flushing. I'm still not satisfied with it.

So, better result than pepcid? Because famitodine barely does anything for me. And to add insult to injury is the fact that I'm only half asian, and my sister has a fully functional liver.
Why does god hate asian people?
Famitodine is about 90% effective for me only on flushing aspect but not much at all (close to 0%) on heart palpitation and headache which I consider more important.
wow, it has been over nine years since I last posted to this thread... First let me thank you all for the countless hours of human experimentation that has gone on. From this thread, I first learned about famitodine and have been using it continuously for 10 years. That's a lot of booze folks, and frankly, it has been totally worth it! So much non-red drinking, so much fun. I'm freaking healthy as ever too. I am greatly impressed with the pharmaceutical promise of Convivia, which led me to this thread once more... also thx for the tip about Vitamin C and L-cysteine -- I'll give that a try and will post a follow up.
Hey everyone,
Like dorkomatic, I want to thank everyone for all the insights people have shared on this forum. I've been reading these posts for a long time, looking for solutions and have only began posting today. I finally made an account because I wanted to give back and contribute to the discussion.
So last weekend, a friend of mine let me try a supplement he created when he drinks and I was surprised it worked on me (I would say it reduced my flush by 90-95%).
The only thing is that I can't eat anything a few hours before taking the pill but this didn't bother me too much. He didn't want to take Pepcid so he took time to figure out a natural solution to process the alcohol (I don't understand all the chemistry but he's showed me some of his notes). I keep telling him he should sell this but he's busy with other stuff and keeps saying that it won't sell because people would need to not eat a few hours before taking the pill. I did convince him to put up a website to see if there is any interest and maybe he'll focus on it full time if he gets interest but I wanted to see what you all thought.
I definitely would buy it but would you guys? Help me convince him! His site is just called Asian Flush Pill (I told him he should have been more creative, haha)
(I don't understand all the chemistry but he's showed me some of his notes).
Did he say Fomepizole or Alda-1?
No he didn't. He said it's not a drug through and that they're all natural ingredients.

I registed mail on it. but couldnt find any info about the pill that you mentioned.
If there isnt any realiable info about the pill, it will be hard to grab peoples interest. my thought.
Yeah that makes sense. He told me he was just going to put a page up to see if there is interest first before he does any more work. I don't think he'll end up going through with it actually unless interest is ridiculous, but he said there hasn't been many signups.
Do you guys think that not being able to eat a few hours before is a big deal? Especially when you can take Pepcid.

More likely due to these people have already been scammed by phony products.
BTW, anything other than Fomepizole (also called Antizole) or Alda-1 will not do the trick and those are not available over the counter in the US. Anyone or any company touting the working solution without those two is not to be trusted.
Yeah I've wasted a ton of money on a bunch of products. So annoying. But that's why I was surprised with this supplement. His Asian Flush Pill worked on his sister too, who I've seen get really really red when taking nothing.
Maybe it's different for everyone but I haven't seen it not work yet.
I asked him and it's not Fomepizole of Alda-1.
What's in it??
