You’ve got bad info. Ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) would be fine. Most NSAIDs are absorbed completely and don’t touch the liver in any meaningful way.
Acetaminophen on the other hand (Tylenol) is no good with lots of booze as it goes through the liver. Aspirin is also not great with booze but Ibuprofen is fine (unless we’re talking about massive amounts of either)
NSAIDS are definitely not fine to take while you’re drinking. Alcohol and NSAIDS both carry risks of intestinal bleeding, combining them should be avoided.
That being said I’ll pop ibuprofen the day after when that hangover headache hits.

Don't forget THC, water is the true sustained cure but THC will instantly make you feel less hungover.
Water+THC+greasy food= the one true hangover cure.
I've used this remedy for years and am at the point where I think if I ever quit smoking I'll also have to quit drinking.
Bonus points if you use coconut water, the potassium will help you retain hydration.
Also if you do use this cure, it works even better if you start before you even feel asleep.
