Basically, it's impossible to "internally give" consent when done under any sort of threat.
In other words, she may "express" consent, but not "internally give consent."
What does that mean? Probably, she'll get strongly supervised treatment and nothing untoward happens. But then what happens if she suffers a serious side effect of the treatment?
This the first sentence of the HN rules. If you only want “hacking-related news” you’re going to have to tolerate some other bits on HN.
I edited my post to clarify a bit more that informed consent is a specific term in medical ethics, and probably doesn't mean what you think it means. Thanks!
