Episode #028, 15.04.2012: efficacious

efficacious, adjective. (Of thing) producing, sure to produce, desired effect.
In a sentence: “The treatment of the disease is very efficacious.”
A synonym is effective. But surely efficacious sounds more important.
Effect means result, consequence. Hence efficacious and effective.
