Sometimes only a very small percentage of people respond to a drug. For example, the effectiveness of aspirin to prevent heart disease only shows up in a small but significant portion of the subjects. Most people gain no measurable benefit.
Here's my my question, how do you explain the larger percentage of people that didn't report anything? You seem to be just ignoring that larger percentage.
To use your drug analogy, a doctor saying, "the reason why aspirin doesn't prevent heart disease for most people is because it doesn't" is not an answer.
