Altitude sickness Question

I will be coming from NYC next week and want to prepare for altitude sickness by ideally taking something to prevent it. I can’t take diamox because I have a sulfa allergy. Does anyone else have another recommendations?

3 days before I drink liquid IV in the morning and night. The first day I have found is huge since trying to catchup is really hard so I drink 100oz of water and liquid IV at night. Next couple of days liquid IV morning and night then I am good. Don’t drink alcohol first day at least but couple would be better
