Placebos can be as powerful as morphine in some patients. Its been shown that an injection of morphine (when hidden from the patient) is about equal to the injection of a placebo (when not hidden from the patient). Meaning that when you take out the possibility of increasing the effects of the morphine effects with the placebo effect that a placebo is just as strong as an equal morphine injection. Not to say that morphine doesnt work but that placebos work just as well as morphine (one of the most powerful pain relievers that we know of today)
