摘要：
Doctors often dismiss drugs as ineffective if they fail to outperform dummy pills in randomized trials. That's a mistake. When active medicines have few side effects and produce a strong placebo effect, such drugs, even if they prove just slightly better than placebo, should be embraced for the relief they can bring to patients who have few safe alternatives.
