How Can Severe Hiccups Be Treated?

are there any over the counter medication for hic cups. I am going to see my doctor on monday because they have lasted over 24 hours. I thought it was due to eating spicy foods but even when watched out for spicy foods they came on. They stop when i go to sleep or relax so it may be stress. I had issues with acid reflex and i think maybe it might have damaged my throut. So until monday is there anything over the counter you might recomment,

Hello,

There is no over the counter medicine but a drug called Liofen(baclofen) used for hiccups. Otherwise, home remedies can be used.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
