There doesn't seem to have been any method opimisation.If I remember right, the container with the liquid init has to be tapped three times with something special (a piece of mummified melton mowbrey pork pie wrapped in a turkish wrestler's jock strap) and only then does it have the magical properties.
I think that they should also provide the double blind test results from a statistically significant test of groups of people who have received the product of 'four-tap' technology as well, or maybe that is over egging it - perhaps two taps would be enough.
Another problem is the purity of the alcohol.
As I understand it, the idea is that you find something that causes symptoms that are similar and then dilute that down to nonexistence and you have your homeopathic cure. One of the main impurities in alcohol is acetaldehyde (ethanal - it is always in there, no matter how pure you make it - let air in there and you get acetaldehyde) which is one of the chemicals that gives you a hangover. Surely, that would obliterate the 'medicinal footprint' of the chemical that is supposed to have one (such as strychnine or whatever). So, you always have a cure for a hangover, whether it was originally for diabetes, cancer or death.
