This sounds pretty crappy right? If I'm understanding the numbers, 25% response is about like what we get with a placebo in most studies if my memory is correct. It sounds like they were tripping balls on 25 mg, so this is definitely in active placebo range. From my memory: Placebo is about 25%. Antidepressants about 35% response rate. Active placebo of something like atropine which makes you feel weird but isn't an antidepressant has about a 35% response rate. https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/are-antidepressants-just-placebos-with-side-effects/ https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/are-antidep...
