Thorazine.




Really, go ahead and look it up.



OK, you don't have access to thorazine (which is the only drug that has shown any benefit), so then you must hypoventilate to retain CO2 and cause a respitatory acidosis. A paper bag is the easiest way to fascilitate a decreased respiratory rate during a case of hiccups ( or is it hiccoughs?).
