Why shouldn’t I drink coffee with a hangover?

Answer

A hangover is, among other things, a result of a fluid deficiency, caused by the diuretic effect of alcohol. Coffee also has a dehydrating effect. In short: the headache that often occurs with a hangover will not be reduced by drinking coffee, but rather aggravate it.
