I found this Report at the CogntiveLiberty.org site. You can say it all you want about the ACLU or the crazy liberals or whatever, and say that something like this will never happen....but look at the moral crusade and lack of personal liberty/privacy we have currently coupled with the ever-growing war on drugs.

Executive Summary:

Over the next decade an increasing number of new “pharmacotherapy”
medications will become available with the potential to tremendously impact
the use and abuse of illegal drugs and the overall direction of national and
international drug policy. These pharmacotherapy medications are designed to
block or significantly reduce the “highs” elicited by illegal drugs. Used as part
of a drug treatment program, pharmacotherapy medications may provide
valuable assistance for people seeking a chemical aid in limiting or eliminating
problem drug use. However, the tremendously politicized nature of the “drug
war” raises substantial concerns that, in addition to those who choose to use
such medications, some people will be compelled to use them. In the absence
of extraordinary circumstances, governmental action forcing or coercing a
person to use a pharmacotherapy drug would violate a number of constitutional
guarantees and other legal rights protecting people from forced medical
treatment. Among the rights implicated by compulsory use of pharmacotherapy
drugs are the right to informed consent, the right to bodily integrity and privacy,
the protection against cruel and unusual punishment, and the right to freedom
of thought.
