Clinically, what ought we to believe?

CONCLUSIONS:: The RCT provides important and clinically relevant information, particularly in psychopharmacology. However, and as with other methodologies, RCTs too are flawed and automatic abdication to their conclusions, especially in complex social interventions, is unwise. A clinical example with conflicting and polarising views, each with their evidence base, is described alongside a suggested clinical strategy for resolving differences of opinion.
