Ipecacuanha
Ipecacuanha
is
an
emetic,
diaphoretic,
and
expectorant.
It
is
used
internally
to
excite
vomiting,
in
doses
of
from
ten
to
twenty
grains
of
the
powder,
or
one
to
one
and
a
half
ounce
of
the
infusion,
every
half
hour
until
vomiting
takes
place.
To
make
it
act
well
and
easily,
the
patient
should
drink
half
pints
of
warm
water
after
each
dose
of
the
infusion.
As
a
diaphoretic,
it
should
be
given
in
doses
of
three
grains,
mixed
with
some
soft
substance,
such
as
crumbs
of
bread,
and
repeated
every
four
hours.
