HiccAway

HiccAway is a consumer medical device company that makes a science-based, drug-free straw-like device designed to stop hiccups instantly. Invented by Dr. Ali Seifi, a neurosurgeon and professor at UT Health San Antonio, the device works by generating controlled suction pressure that simultaneously lowers the diaphragm and activates the epiglottis, stimulating the phrenic and vagus nerves to reset the brain's hiccup reflex. With over $11 million in lifetime sales and a 90%+ success rate, HiccAway is sold direct-to-consumer and gained wide recognition after appearing on Shark Tank Season 13.
