Why are placebos not often used in drug trials in the UK?
Well it depends on the type of trial. Often it would be unethical to use a placebo when there is already an established treatment for a condition. For example if you have a new form of cancer treatment it would be unethical to test the new treatment against a placebo because you would be denying the recommended treatment to a percentage of the patients. In this type of case the trial uses the new treatment and compares the efficacy against the accepted standard treatment.. Placebos would generally only be used where the effects are non-life threatening or it's a totally new treatment for an existing condition. For example when AZT was first trialled on AIDS patients they used a placebo control, the trial had to be stopped early because so many of the control group were dying and the control group were switched to AZT as well. Ethics not science dictated the early termination of this trial
