'a pill that reacts with alcohol sobering a person up quickly'
you mean a bit like this stuff:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcysteine
apparently pretty cheap, would vastly increase the rate of alcohol breakdown in the body and yet no ones heard of it.

not sure
they give it for paracetamol overdose to stop the liver from getting damaged, it's occurs naturally but it's like a nice supplement of it.

I don't think it works like that
It mops up the metabolites of alcohol (so reduces hangover symptoms) but I don't think it speeds up the metabolism itself.
So you will get just as drunk, for the same time, but with less headache in the morning.

Agreed, and the best reason to take it would be the lack of hangover!
it don't think it will speed up the metabolic rate, but given that you'll have plenty supply of it, you'll be able to break down the booze at a normal rate for much longer than someone who'd not taken it, so you'll probably sober up faster.
