Ipecacuanha ip.
Mnemonic names
Ipe. / (Gu.) / Imp.
Verse
Ipecac.,-We find a gem
For a flux of blood and phelgm.
Stools fermented, purging oft,
Lungs oppressed with rattling cough.
Bloody vomit-sputum-stool
Bleeding everywhere her rule.
Nausea, vomiting of bile,
Biliousness in every style;
Choking, smothering, (blue, the while)
Sometimes, too, she comes to right us
In a case fo meningitis.
Much she strengthens labor pains,
And o'er bilious ague reigns.
