Oh sure the process with how they work is very different. My point was more towards the 'this is unethical treatment' sentiment. I don't have experience with disulfram, but I'm familiar with a few different methods to treat addiction. Most of them make you feel like shit when you drink as a sort of skinner-style negative conditioning.

So yes, taking the one that doesn't actually make the poison _more toxic_ - just a less pleasant experience - is probably the preferred route so you don't endanger yourself. But it's still forcing yourself to extreme negative consequences and conditioning your brain to associate alcohol with misery.
