Abstract

The efficacy of the placebo (‘I shall please’) is variable, depending on both the type of disorder and the effectiveness of the treatment itself. The efficacy of the placebo is usually considered to be about 20–30% and produced by the effect of psychological variables, such as expectations, conditioning, etc. A phenomenon that is a placebo in a given science does not have to remain a placebo forever; it depends on the progress and advancement of scientific research, Recently use of placebo has taken myopic stance for ethical research in life style diseases or any other acute or chronic illness with some exceptions.

Keywords: Placebo, Placebo effect, Nocebo, Cancer research.
