The label is named after syrup of ipecac, an emetic, or vomit-inducing, medicine. The roots were used to make syrup of ipecac, a powerful emetic. Inducing vomiting with syrup of ipecac is not recommended. Important medicines from roots are ginseng, aconite, ipecac, gentian and reserpine. Inducing vomiting with syrup of ipecac is no longer recommended in any poisoning situation. Gastric lavage, syrup of ipecac, and whole bowel irrigation are rarely used. There is insufficient data to support or exclude ipecac administration soon after poison ingestion. Causing vomiting by the use of medications such as ipecac is not recommended. Secologanin is then able to proceed onto produce ipecac and terpene indole alkaloids. Moreover, accidental overdose of ipecac can result when administered in the home. This line-up released an album, "Freak Puke", in June, 2012 on Ipecac Recordings. Ipecac abuse can cause detrimental health effects. It was released through Mike Patton's own label, Ipecac Recordings. Misuse of ipecac has been blamed for the death of singer Karen Carpenter in 1983. Early treatments included garlic, cinnamon and ipecac, among others.
