Latest time to take it
For an 11 pm bedtime, one powder packet of Goody's Hangover Powder taken by about 2:40 pm keeps most people under 50 mg of caffeine through the night. The table works it out for other bedtimes and for how sensitive you are: it is the latest time to take one so that the caffeine left stays under the line all night.
| Bedtime | Very sensitive under 25 mg | Average under 50 mg | Not very sensitive under 100 mg |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 pm | 7:40 am | 12:40 pm | 5:40 pm |
| 10 pm | 8:40 am | 1:40 pm | 6:40 pm |
| 11 pm | 9:40 am | 2:40 pm | 7:40 pm |
| Midnight | 10:40 am | 3:40 pm | 8:40 pm |
| 1 am | 11:40 am | 4:40 pm | 9:40 pm |
One unit as listed on the label, average clearance (half-life 5 h), 8 hours of sleep. "Any time" means even one at bedtime stays under the line. Follow the label or ask your pharmacist about how much and how often to take it; this table is only about sleep.
How long it lasts
The caffeine from one powder packet of Goody's Hangover Powder peaks in your blood about 70 minutes after you take it, at roughly 128 mg. Half of it is gone in about 5 hours for an average adult; that ranges from roughly 3 to 7 hours, and longer in pregnancy or with some medicines.
| Time after | 3 hours | 6 hours | 9 hours | 12 hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Still in you | 104 mg | 69 mg | 45 mg | 30 mg |
So one taken at 3 pm leaves about 52 mg at 11 pm. How long caffeine lasts explains the curve.

The curves use a standard one-compartment model with an average 5-hour half-life and a sleep-friendly line of 50 mg; your own body may clear caffeine faster or slower. How it works has the details.
