Bytox Hangover Patch is a medication used to reduce effects of hangover.[1][2]

History[edit]

Bytox Hangover Patch was first introduced in New York 2011 by Alex Fleyshmakher and Leonard Grossman.[3][4] Bytox word is a portmanteau of "bye" and "toxins".[1]

In 2012, Bytox was banned in the United Kingdom by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency due to no license.[5][6]

Bytox works in the same way as scopolamine does.[1] It is made using acai berries and extract of green tea.[7]
