Warning! “Ipecac Syrup” can cause death when it used for weight loss!What a shame to weight loss gurus and guides. How can a weight loss guru recommend “Ipecac Syrup” to loose weight? Misuse of “Ipecac syrup” caused a death recently.
Some eating disordered individuals participate in
dangerous activity of using ipecac syrup as a means of purging. Ipecac syrup is a plant extract from
ipecacuanha scrub found in Brazil. When ingested, Ipecac syrup stimulates
central nervous system and
stomach, causing
person to vomit. Ipecac’s sole purpose is to facilitate vomiting in an individual who has ingested poison or overdosed on medication. The use of Ipecac is for a single use, and
intent is for Ipecac syrup to never to be used on multiple occasions.
Since it cause “Vomiting” some Weight Loss guru though it can help to lose weight by means of burning
fat. Burning
fat by means of vomiting! I don’t know
logic. Anyway “Ipecac Syrup” was recommended to loose weight. A over weight patient misused it. That cased death!

Pharmaceutical stores without prescription. Syrup of Ipecac is for emergency use in poisoning. When it is given to a child or an adult, Ipecac syrup will cause vomiting.
