It provides the participants an opportunity to receive potential benefit from a drug, medical device or procedure or even a lifestyle change such as diet or exercise.

A new medication may be compared to a placebo that has no active ingredients sometimes called a sugar pill. When this new application (medication or product) is studied it may not be known as to whether or not it will help. | |
