* ''Literature/BellePratersBoy'': During a party, Gypsy's mother makes a drink called Peach Ice (ice cubes, peach soda, and vanilla ice cream) for her guests. Woodrow personally serves a rude lady her drinks. Throughout the party, the woman becomes friendlier and much less inhibited, to the point that she takes off her shoes and goes running through a creek. Woodrow tells Gypsy that he told the woman he was putting a little gin in her drinks, making her believe she was getting drunk. In actuality, he never did; he just wanted to see if she believed him.

* Implied in ''Film/ThePaleBlueEye''. After discovering that the children of Dr. Marquis stole a heart from a corpse for a black magic ritual to cure his daughter's epilepsy, Landor demands to know why he, a man of learning and medicine, went along with this. Dr. Marquis protests that his daughter appeared to get better afterwards. Of course, with the inevitable relapse his daughter is only more desperate to try the ritual again, this time by taking the heart of a living person.

* UK comedy show Smack the Pony has this in one sketch, with a rather inept and lazy doctor. When her patient points out that saying she's going to give her a placebo will negate the effect, she attempts to evade embarrassment by writing down a made-up drug name on the prescription. (Interestingly, some [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placebo#Factors_influencing_the_power_of_the_placebo_effect real life studies]] into the placebo effect have found evidence it can work even if the patient knows they're being given a placebo.)

* ''Fanfic/ACertainDrollHivemind'': From "Guest Entry - Mikoto": one of Misaka's thoughts to do to Uiharu, talking about a FakeHigh but mentioning the placebo effect:
--> her precinct uses some really nasty frequency jumping algorithms and encryption tricks that makes it harder than Anti-Skill's stuff. Hmm. Note to self - buy Uiharu some rum and raisin ice cream and see if that has a placebo effect that gets her tipsy so she talks about how she implemented it. It's starting to get on my nerves that I can't reliably listen in.
