Sugar pills relieve chronic pain: Study
New Delhi, Sep 14 (ANI): A recent study has revealed that sugar pills can reduce chronic pain as effectively as any powerful drug. The study by Professor A Apkarian suggests that using sugar pills to relieve chronic pain can have several benefits. Prescribing non-active drugs instead of active drugs can help to stay out of addiction. It will eliminate the placebo effect from drug trials.
