Brief Answer:
You will need vitamins to maintain brain/nerve health

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

After an episode of binge drinking, detox will happen in body by itself. Administering detoxifying agents orally will not be much helpful and may even have side effects. You can drink lots of clean water to flush out toxins. Keep a track of your blood pressure.

In my opinion you can take a combination of B1, B3, B6, B12 and folic acid e.g in Neurobion. Alcohol can affect brain/nerves. This vitamin combination helps in maintaining the brain/nerve health.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
