– SUDARSHAN SR ,NON MALARIAL FEVERS
 KENT: “Ipecac., has a wide sphere of action among acute illnesses……The febrile conditions commence with pain in the back between the shoulders, extending down the back, as if it would break, with or without rigors, much fever, vomiting of bile and seldom any thirst.”
 ”All the complaints in Ipecac. Are attended more or less with nausea; every little pain and distress is attended with nausea….When Ipecac., does its best work there is thirstlessness.”
 ”Ipecac., is sometimes as restless as Ars., but the Ipecac. Prostration come sby spells, whereas the Ars. Prostration is continuous. You will see Ipecac. Patients tossing over the bed as much as they do when they need Rhus, turning and tossing and moving the hands and feet with restlessness. This is especially the case when the spine is somewhat involved. Ipecac. Has symptoms that look like tetanus; it has opisthotonos, and it has been a useful remedy in cerebro-spinal meningitis with vomiting of bile, with pain in the back of the head and neck; and drawing of the muscles of the back, retracting the head. When cerebro-spinal meningitis has gone on until the patient is emaciated, when remedies have seemed but to palliate momentarily, and the whole body is inclined backwards, and there is vomiting of everything, even the simplest article taken into the stomach, the tongue is red and raw, and there is constant nausea and vomiting of bile, Ipecac., will cure.”
 ”ALLEN: “Cough with rattling of mucus in bronchi when inspiring (Ant-t.); threatened suffocation from mucus.”
 ”Chill worse in a warm room, or from external heat (Apis), lessened by drinking and in the open air.”
 ”Heat with thirst; usually long lasting; over whole body, with alternate coldness and paleness of face; nausea and vomiting; anxious, oppressed breathing, and dry, hacking cough, often exciting nausea and vomiting; cold hands and feet.”
 The tongue is at first clean; then coated yellowish or white; pale in all cases.
 ”Relapses from improprieties in diet is always an additional indication for Ipecac…..In all forms and types of fever, reckless or overeating is perhaps the most frequent cause of relapse.”
 HERING: “worm fever, with retching, blue rings around eyes, vomiting with a clean tongue.”
 CLINICAL : Catarrhal fever; gastric fever; hectic fever; infantile remittent fever, cerebro-spinal meningitis; broncho-pneumonia; scarlet fever.

-PETERSEN F. J.,
Syn.-Ipecacuanha; Ipecac.
P. E.-Root.
N. O.-Rubiaceæ.
N. H.-South America; New Granada.
Properties: In minute doses tonic and stimulant; in large doses expectorant, diaphoretic and emetic.
Physiological action: Powdered ipecac applied to the skin will produce irritation, redness and pustulation. The powder when inhaled is an irritant to the mucous membrane and will cause in many, sneezing, asthmatic breathing; epistaxis, spitting of blood, and in some cases swelling of eyes, face and throat. This may often be counteracted with quebracho or uva ursi. In small doses it is a stimulant. In large doses a depressant. In small doses of 1/8 to 1/4 of a grain it stimulates salivary and gastric secretion and has a general tonic effect on the stomach. In doses of 1/2 to 1 grain it is a good expectorant, while in 2 grain doses it is diaphoretic. In larger doses of 10 to 20 grains its first effect is stimulating, after which it will produce nausea and vomiting. It is milder and slower than other emetics but is less depressing. Ipecac has a marked effect on the pneumogastric nerve. In many cases repeated emetic doses will produce a toleration of the stomach, the emetic affect being lost, and it acts as a cathartic, the feces having a bilious color. Specific ipecacuanha is preferable to the powder in most cases.

Indications: Persistent irritation of the mucous membrane with lack of secretion, especially in acute inflammatory condition. Irritation of digestive tract indicated by contracted elongated pointed tongue with red edges. In all these cases it should be given in small doses. As an emetic in large doses it is indicated where there is an accumulation in the stomach, with broad, flabby, pale and heavily coated tongue, showing inactivity. Nausea and vomiting with pale relaxed membrane. Taken in cold liquid in minute doses it is useful as a styptic, arrests nausea and vomiting and diarrhoea. It is diaphoretic, expectorant and emetic. As an emetic it is slower than lobelia but is less depressing and often acts both as an emetic and laxative. Taking it in warm water makes its action more prompt in such cases. We think of it in acute bronchitis, bronchitis in children. In infantile pneumonia it is an excellent remedy. Cough with deficient secretion. In hemorrhage it is a useful remedy in good sized doses. In dysentery and diarrhoea it is one of our best agents, especially if combined with aconite. In croup, associated with sanguinaria, it is of great value. Its long continued use may cause a diarrhoea in some people and therefore discretion should be used. In minute doses it is one of our best remedies to excite the stomach to motor activity. Here it is given in small doses after meals. Syrup of ipecac is made of tincture ipecac ?i; simple syrup ?vii. Used as an expectorant.
