St. John’s Wort failed to make a difference in depression, but Zoloft wasn't effective either, and placebo was! Maybe the patients weren’t really depressed, only unhappy. Maybe it just proves that drugs need to be tested on more than a few hundred people to be able to draw any valid conclusions about them. I favor the latter. posted by Sydney on
