Sobriety basically comes with time. Some people say coffee (but that can be lethal if there is too much caffiene with Alcohol) or just water... If they aren't breathing right... they need their blood pumped out and more blood put in..

Once a person is intoxicated, it pretty well has to run its course until the body has filtered it out. Some people say black coffee or a cold shower, but these really do not work. Coffee actually increases the chance of a next morning hangover. However, there are a couple things that can help lessen the effects. If a person knows they have had a bit too much, eating a little something like bread will help absorb some of the alcohol still in the stomach, and slow its release into the blood stream. The intoxication doesn't go away, but it may help it from becoming much more intense. Also, alcohol is a serious diuretic. In excess it will cause dehydration, which is the primary source of a hangover. Drinking plenty of water or Gatorade will prevent them from getting dehydrated and will lessen effects such as a next morning headache. It is better to not get drunk to begin with. If you know you are going out to party a bit, make sure you have something on your stomach. Don't rush and drink alcoholic drinks back to back. After you have one, give it fifteen or twenty minutes to gauge how you feel before deciding on your next one. I have seen people get totally smashed off of two back to back drinks because they didn't know their own systems. It's better to take it easy and enjoy the night. You'll be glad that you don't feel like garbage, and your friends will be glad they didn't have to deal with you.

Also, just a side note, there is such a thing as alcohol poisoning. If your friend is drunk enough that they are passing out, vomiting, pale and cool, having trouble breathing, or anything else that seems out of the ordinary, you need to get them to a hospital.

To sober up, you can drink water to help flush out the alcohol from your system, eat a nutritious meal to stabilize your blood sugar levels, and get some rest to allow your body to recover. Avoid caffeine and other stimulants, as they may make you feel more alert but won't actually sober you up.
