Can doctors prescribe a placebo under the name of another drug?
Is there any benefit to prescribing a placebo?
While the idea of prescribing a placebo may be controversial, studies have shown that placebos can have a positive effect on certain conditions, such as pain and anxiety. However, it is important for patients to receive appropriate medical treatment and for doctors to ensure that their patients are not being misled or receiving treatments that may be harmful.
