what you need to do is take a drink but don’t swallow until you plug both ears then swallow it works everytime! My mother in-law told me this several years ago God rest her soul! Never fails!

The best thing I have found is to ask the hiccup-ee what they had for dinner the night before, then the previous night, etc. Not sure why it works, but if you are somewhere where there is no water, peanut butter etc. to be found (think road trip)it is worth a try! Best thing is it’s free!

Drink a half glass of water, then tilt the head up towards the ceiling (or towards the sky… if you’re outside) with your mouth open and stop breathing for about 10 seconds (with your mouth still open). This definitely works and will get rid of your hiccups (trust me, I’ve been using this technique since I was a child and it works everytime).

i find that it just requires concentration, hence all the eating, drinking or breath holding. if you take a mouthful of water and hold it in your mouth and hold your breath, it forces you to concentrate and hiccups are gone!!

You are a savior. You may have solved the mystery of a lifetime. As soon as i tried to hiccup on purpose and began to concentrate, they stopped immediately. You have to spread the word. The world must know. You don’t know how much I appreciate that tip. God bless you.

Amazing,warm water actually worked. I was suffering from hiccups, tried holding my breath and drinking sips of water, the usual, but never worked, i then googled and found this article, after taking a few sips of warm water, i was gone. Im still amazed. I want hiccups again so that i can try this one more time, thanks

When my family gets hiccups we get a glass of water and put a napkin over it and drink all of the water in the cup through the napkin. It works everytime for us

I must say that the warm water bit works like a charm! My best friend, K complained that he was having hiccups that just wouldn’t go away. He even added that the constant hiccups were causing his chest to hurt. Initially, I was making fun of him and thought of suggesting the warm water but I didn’t. I then decided to check for some home remedies via Google. Eureka! I found the warm water solution. I was so amazed, so I quickly told him about it. Believe it or not, he said that his hiccups had completely gone – within seconds – after drinking the warm water. Once again, water has proven to be a life-saver. Thank you TipNut!!!

Peanut butter is the best remedy for hiccups. My husband and I both have them and it does work for us. Just take a teaspoon of peanut butter and eat it and it will help. I have also heard sugar or candy with sugar does the trick as well.
