Pharmacy Debate

[Kain]

Hey guys, i really need your help on this one.
I have a debate coming up soon for my pharmacy history and Ethics course, and i'm supposed to debate against the use of placebo.

So far i have no argument whatsoever...so i was wondering if any of our doctors or pharmacists have any info that could prove useful to me.

Thank you in advance.
