I think drug testing cannot be truly a double blind unless the patient doesn't know what they are taking the medication for. (Like if they know they have bipolar and the pill is supposed to help with it....but that's why they use the placebo LOL)

I wish they were able to do year long studies of people taking medications in controlled environments but that is unethical.
