| Summary | The survey results showed that the prescription of “ethical placebos” could be an acceptable option for
the patients in Japan. For ethical concerns, an additional literature survey was conducted and the result suggested that such a radical treatment option could be justifed, provided that the prescription benefts patients and informed consent is properly obtained. Albeit it is impractical to use, because of ethical and operational concerns, it would be worth further investigation to ensure diversity in the countermeasures for antimicrobial resistance, a major public health threat nowadays |
