Imitation medicine (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

placebo

(Other definitions for placebo that I've seen before include "Sham medicine used in test or for effect" , "inactive medication" , "False medication, psychologically applied" , "Prescription to soothe" , "Medicine given for its psychological benefit alone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
