Answers:
Ipecac is usually in a small brown bottle that resembles peroxide. Some bottles are clear too. Ipecac is used to induce vomitting, and is recommended when children swallow certain types of toxins. It tastes extrememly sweet and disgusting, and will make you vomit minutes after ingesting. Health Question & Answer

Ipecac (Ipecacuanha) is an emetic meaning that it induces vomitting. The answer above describes it quite well.

Ipecac is used for a number of reasons when the need for vomitting is required - children who have swallowed poisonous substances / pills, by some bulimics to vomit their last meal, etc. Some cultures use it to assist with ridding their bodies of "spirits" during rituals as is their cultural belief.

I have not tried Ipecac nor would I recommend it as the expulsive forces during vomitting can cause a number of problems, including gastric acid entering and irritating the nasal passages. Anyway, vomitting is just an unpleasant sensation. It depends why you want to use it.Health Question & Answer
