Mechanism of action

The placebo effect is a well-documented phenomenon where patients experience a perceived improvement in symptoms due to the psychological impact of receiving a treatment, even if it is inert. In this case, the patch serves as a visual cue to the patient that they are receiving treatment, which can lead to a subjective improvement in symptoms. However, it is essential to note that the actual mechanism of action is purely psychological and not based on any pharmacological effect.
