Best Hangover Pills (2026): Ranked by Disclosed DHM Dose

Q: Which hangover pill has the most DHM?

Of the products with a *disclosed* discrete dose, Hovenia and No Days Wasted both list 1,000 mg of DHM per serving — the high end of the 300–1,200 mg research range. Cheers lists a 1,200 mg vine-tea extract standardized to 98% DHM (≈1,176 mg computed, not stated plainly). Flyby and More Labs don't disclose their DHM amount, so they can't be compared on this.

Here’s the honest problem with ranking “hangover pills”: no product on this page is proven to prevent or cure a hangover. The human research across the whole category is thin — mostly small studies or animal models — so any ranking based on “what works best” would be making up a certainty that doesn’t exist. We won’t do that.

What you can compare, objectively, is what each label actually tells you. Most of these products are built around the same headline ingredient — DHM (dihydromyricetin) — so the fair question is: how much DHM are you getting, and does the brand disclose it, or hide it inside a proprietary blend? That’s a fact you can verify, and it’s what we rank by here.

Disclosure: Hovenia (single-ingredient DHM) is the brand behind this site, and it’s included below as one option among several. It’s pre-launch and US-first, so you can’t buy it today — you can reserve it. We’ve kept every figure to what’s printed on each product’s label, with sources at the foot of the page. Verify anything that matters to you.

The comparison (sorted by dose disclosure)

Ranked by whether the label discloses a discrete DHM dose, then by the DHM amount, then by formula simplicity. Not ranked by effectiveness — see the note above.

Product	Discloses DHM dose?	DHM per serving (per label)	Formula	Serving size	Price / serving (DTC)*
Hovenia	✅ Yes — as a discrete mg figure	1,000 mg	Single ingredient — DHM only	1 serving ([FORMAT-PENDING] capsule count)	~$1.00
No Days Wasted — DHM Detox	✅ Yes — itemized on an open label	1,000 mg	Blend: DHM + L-Cysteine, milk thistle, prickly pear, vitamins	2 capsules	~$3.07
Double Wood — Dihydromyricetin	✅ Yes — as a discrete mg figure	300 mg	Single ingredient — DHM only	1 capsule	~$0.50
Cheers — Restore	⚠️ Partial — extract + %, not a discrete DHM number	1,200 mg vine-tea extract standardized to 98% DHM (≈1,176 mg DHM, computed — not stated on the label)	Blend: DHM-vine-tea + L-Cysteine, milk thistle, prickly pear, ginger, vitamins	3 capsules	~$2.92
Flyby — Recovery	❌ No — undisclosed	Not stated; the brand’s site publishes no Supplement Facts panel and explicitly calls the DHM amount “top secret”	Proprietary blend	2 capsules	~$2.00
More Labs — Morning Recovery	❌ No — undisclosed	Not stated; DHM is inside a proprietary “More Labs Blend” (1.25 g), labeled only as “Min. 35% DHM” of an unstated amount	Proprietary blend (liquid shot, not a pill)	3.4 fl oz shot	~$6.00

*Prices are direct-to-consumer list prices read at the time of research (see Sources) and per single serving as each brand defines it; they change often and lower third-party pricing exists for several. Verify current pricing and labels before relying on any figure.

What the table shows: three products disclose a discrete DHM dose (Hovenia and No Days Wasted at 1,000 mg; Double Wood at 300 mg). One discloses the extract but not a plain DHM number (Cheers). Two don’t disclose the DHM dose at all (Flyby, More Labs). That’s the whole point of the ranking — not which one “works,” but which ones let you see what you’re buying.

How we ranked these

One criterion, applied in order:

Does the label disclose a discrete DHM dose? A milligram figure you can read is worth more than “trust us.”
How much DHM? More disclosed DHM ranks higher — as a factual dose comparison, not a claim that more works better.
Single ingredient vs. blend. A single-ingredient label means the disclosed number is unambiguous — there’s nothing else in the capsule to wonder about. Blends are a legitimate, popular approach; they just make the DHM figure one line among many.

We deliberately do not rank by “effectiveness,” morning-after results, or reviews. The evidence for hangover supplements is preliminary across the board, and a transparency ranking is the one comparison we can make honestly. Hovenia and No Days Wasted both fully disclose 1,000 mg of DHM; the differences between them are formula (single ingredient vs. blend) and price, not disclosed dose.

Product by product

Hovenia — single-ingredient DHM, 1,000 mg

Dihydromyricetin and a vegan capsule — that’s the whole ingredient list, with the dose stated on the front of the label. One serving delivers 1,000 mg of DHM, about 30 servings per bottle, at roughly $1.00 per serving. The trade-off is honest: there’s no supporting stack, and it’s pre-launch (US-first, waitlist/reserve, no checkout yet). If you want a full, transparent DHM dose with nothing else and the lowest per-serving cost here, this is the simplest option. For the dose reasoning, see DHM dosage: 300 mg vs 1,000 mg.

No Days Wasted — DHM Detox, 1,000 mg (blend)

The category’s most-advertised product. Its label is fully open — DHM is itemized at 1,000 mg alongside L-Cysteine, milk thistle, prickly pear, and B-vitamins/electrolytes. So you get the same headline DHM dose as Hovenia, plus a supporting stack, at roughly $3 per serving direct (lower at some third-party retailers). If you want the established name and like the idea of a blend, this is the reference product. Our fuller take: No Days Wasted review.

Double Wood — Dihydromyricetin, 300 mg

The transparency benchmark at the low end: a plain single-ingredient DHM capsule with 300 mg stated clearly, at the cheapest per-serving price on this page (~$0.50, less in bulk). It discloses everything; it’s simply a lower dose than the 1,000 mg options, which is a factual difference, not a knock. If you want the least-expensive transparent DHM and are fine with 300 mg, it’s a straightforward pick.

Cheers — Restore (transparent, but DHM stated as an extract)

Cheers runs a fully itemized, no-proprietary-blend label — but it lists its DHM as “1,200 mg vine-tea extract standardized to 98% DHM” rather than as a discrete DHM figure. Do the arithmetic and that’s roughly 1,176 mg of DHM, but you have to compute it; the plain number isn’t printed. It’s a multi-ingredient formula (adds L-Cysteine, milk thistle, prickly pear, ginger, vitamins), 3 capsules per dose, at about $2.92 per dose direct (its DTC price has recently moved between roughly $35 and $50 a bottle — verify current). Transparent overall — just a half-step less legible on the DHM number itself. More detail: Cheers supplement review.

Flyby — Recovery (dose not disclosed)

Flyby’s DHM amount is not disclosed. Its product page publishes no Supplement Facts panel at all, and its FAQ states plainly that the exact DHM figure is proprietary — verbatim, “that’s top secret.” That means there’s no way to know how much DHM you’re getting per serving. (A 1,551 mg proprietary-blend total appears in third-party reviews, not on Flyby’s own site.) It’s inexpensive per capsule (~$2 per 2-capsule serving), and a full pre/post protocol is 4 capsules — but the core number you’d want to compare is the one you can’t see.

More Labs — Morning Recovery (dose not disclosed; a drink, not a pill)

Strictly, this is a liquid shot rather than a pill, but it’s a frequent cross-shop. Its DHM sits in a proprietary “More Labs Blend” (1.25 g total) and is not disclosed as a discrete amount; the label characterizes only the Hovenia-dulcis fraction as “Min. 35% DHM” of an unstated quantity, so the DHM dose can’t be computed. The brand’s own site publishes no DHM milligram figure. At about $6 per shot, it’s the priciest per serving here and the least transparent on dose.

What to look for in a hangover pill (buyer’s guide)

If you’re comparing DHM products, these are the facts worth checking — all verifiable, none requiring you to trust a marketing claim:

A disclosed DHM dose. A discrete milligram number on the Supplement Facts panel beats a proprietary blend that hides it. If a brand won’t tell you the dose, that absence is information.
How much DHM, stated plainly. Research doses span roughly 300–1,200 mg; budget products often sit near 300 mg. Higher isn’t a promise of a better result — but it’s a fair number to compare when it’s disclosed.
Single ingredient vs. blend. Neither is “better.” A single ingredient gives you an unambiguous dose and label; a blend gives you more inputs but makes the DHM one line among many.
Price per equal serving. Compare cost per serving at the dose you’d actually take, not per bottle.
Red flags: any product promising to “cure,” “prevent,” “detox,” or “neutralize” a hangover — regulators don’t allow those claims for supplements, and the evidence doesn’t support them. Skepticism is warranted.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best hangover pill? There isn’t one “best” by effectiveness — no hangover supplement is proven to cure or prevent a hangover, so treat any product that claims otherwise with suspicion. If you’re comparing DHM pills specifically, the honest way to rank them is by what the label discloses: a product that states a discrete DHM dose (like Hovenia or No Days Wasted at 1,000 mg, or Double Wood at 300 mg) lets you see what you’re buying; one that hides the dose in a proprietary blend does not.

What is the best pill for a hangover? The most useful answer is a question back: does the label tell you the DHM dose? Among the products here, three disclose a discrete DHM figure and two don’t. Beyond disclosure, it comes down to whether you want a single ingredient or a blend, and the price per serving. Effectiveness claims in this category run ahead of the evidence.

Which hangover pill has the most DHM? Of the products with a disclosed discrete dose, Hovenia and No Days Wasted both list 1,000 mg of DHM per serving — the high end of the 300–1,200 mg research range. Cheers lists a 1,200 mg vine-tea extract standardized to 98% DHM (≈1,176 mg computed, not stated plainly). Flyby and More Labs don’t disclose their DHM amount, so they can’t be compared on this.

Do hangover prevention pills actually work? No supplement has been shown in robust human trials to prevent hangovers, and the strongest lever remains drinking less and more slowly. DHM is the most-studied compound in the category, but that research is mostly preclinical. See our honest DHM guide and how to prevent a hangover for what the evidence does and doesn’t support.

Are single-ingredient DHM pills better than blends? Neither is inherently better — it’s a trade-off. A single-ingredient DHM product gives you a clear, unambiguous dose and label; a blend adds supporting ingredients but makes the DHM one line among several. Pick the one that matches what you actually want to know and take.
