I have not seen the dialysis machine used much, so buffing it to see if that makes it more attractive to use could be a good idea. This is with the caveat that I have not used the machine myself, so I do not know how efficient it is at the moment.
I do not have very strong feelings when it comes to nerfing the general purgatives. Charcoal is a very weak and somewhat RNG-based purgative, so I do not think it is in strong competition with the dialysis machine. Calomel does have the drawback of dealing damage, though it is a strong purgative otherwise. Pentetic acid is very strong, and could probably easily take a little nerf and still be very useful. Hunchback is a bit more on the gimmick side I think, with the massive risk to health when it is used. It does give the bartender a way to flush someone though, with the caveat that the person will probably be writhing in a pool of their own vomit in the process.
I am not in favour of nerfing targeted purgatives. They either have very specific applications that I think should be rewarded when used properly, or they are more like joke chems like in the case of atrazine removing THC/CBD. I do not think touching, for example, Milk's capsaicin removal will in any way affect the usage of the dialysis machine, which this PR is supposed to address.
