Antabuse and Monitored Sobriety
I would like to know if a probation officer can mandate that a person sentenced to monitored sobriety take antabuse rather than give the option of daily breath tests? I have heard form several people in my situation that an option must be given due to a past lawsuit in Boulder County. My health professional states that it could pose extreme dengers to certain illnesses from which I suffer.
I was sentenced in Boulder County of a felony alcohol charge.
thanks

Antabuse requires a prescription. If your doctor does not recommend it, you get a statement from him and then you should be on monitored sobriety.
