Drink several swallows of water without taking a breath then hold your breath for 5 seconds, swallow, hold 5 more seconds (no breaths should be taken during this) then breathe. This should get your duodenum back on track and you will be hiccup free. Works every time if done correctly.

One good way to do this is to quickly drink about an ounce of either pickle juice or lime juice. Drink it just like taking a shot. It almost always cures hiccups!

Even though some people consider this a myth, you can often get rid of hiccups by simply holding your breath for a short period of time.

The cure is really very simple, and a lot pleasanter than most people are used to. Just take a teaspoon of sugar and let it melt in your mouth. That will get rid of your hiccups.
