Placebos for Research

The placebo-controlled trial is the gold standard of medical research.  Yet researchers often are faced with a dilemma: locating where to buy placebos for research.  As critical as placebos can be to investigational research, clinical trials, comparative studies and translational research, few companies can provide placebos in the quantities and varieties that many researchers require.  In smaller studies, for example, contract manufacturers often are not equipped to produce small quantities of placebos tablets or other forms. 
 
When you need to buy placebos for research, ask us first.  We have people and resources dedicated full time to serving your unique requirements.  In our practice, the perennial problem of compliance with medication has driven us to serve our client's patients by developing an array of traditional and unique dosage-forms, in many sizes, shapes, flavors and colors.  Because our unique dosage forms are in high demand among more than 25,000 prescribers nationwide, we have the facilities and equipment to serve a national need for any quantity of a medication – or its placebo match.  As one of the nation’s largest compounding pharmacies, our business is built around compounding and delivering a wide variety of customized preparations.
