Currently stuck with painful hiccups while trying to swallow my evening medications; all anti-hiccup tricks are fair game right now, give me all you’ve got

A spoonful of peanut butter always works for me. If allergic, you can use anything else of a similar texture (sunflower butter, cookie butter, Nutella, etc.)
Had a teacher in the 5th grade who would make us stand in front of the entire class and state our issue, then she would tell us to hiccup. Try as we might we just couldn’t do it! I don’t think that it’s the size of the audience but the fact of being put on the spot that cured them!!
Fail proof one for my stubborn hiccups: inhale as much as you can, hold, swallow 2-3 times, then inhale even deeper, then swallow 2-3 times again... keep doing this until you have to exhale.
It's a weird one, but it works for me when the usual tricks don't work.

(did it work?)
