Since no one has yet metioned this one, I'll contribute:

A former roomate of mine once swore by activated charcoal
as the ultimate hangover prevention/cure.  It is available
from drug stores in capsules or chewable tablets ( Not 
recommended if you like white teeth...) and is 
usually prescribed to control flatulence (may as well 
kill two birds with the same stone).  The suggestion
originally came from a Harvard Medical Journal.  It was
not given as a guarenteed cure, but the author had
done some research and it worked for him.
At any rate, after swallowing/chewing several of the little
guys before turning in for the night, my roomate never once
woke up in a bad way (or at least never admitted it).
