I remember reading somewhere that the vitamin which does the most in
this regard is vitamin B.  Appearently, if enough vitamin B is taken
before you start drinking, the hangover will be significantly reduced or
eliminated.  I am not recommending this since it is only a dim memory
and I can't remember the dosages required.  Does anyone else have any
information or experience with this?

I agree completely with drinking water.  It helps greatly.
