Ipecac:


Ipecac should NEVER be used as a way of losing weight. Using this product regularly or using it for other reasons may have serious and even fatal outcomes. Side effects include: Diarrhea; fast or irregular heartbeat; nausea or vomiting that lasts more than 30 minutes; stomach cramps or pain; troubled breathing; unusual tiredness or weakness; weakness, aching, and stiffness of muscles, especially muscles in your neck, arms and legs. Using this product as an aid for losing weight may cause muscle problems, bad muscle heart problems and cardiac arrest. They are very dangerous causing severe potassium imbalances leading to heart and kidney failure and sudden death from cardiac arrest.

Ephedra:


Ephedra overdose can lead to amphetamine - like side effects, including elevated blood pressure, rapid heart beat, nervousness, irritability, headache, urination disturbances, vomiting, muscle disturbances, insomnia, dry mouth, heart palpitations, and even death due to heart failure. One study has shown that a single application of ephedra caused mild elevation of heart rate but did not consistently affect blood pressure in otherwise healthy adults. When taken at higher levels, ephedra can cause drastic increases in blood pressure, as well as cardiac arrhythmias. Ephedrine is considered potentially habit-forming, though it is unclear if the whole herb ephedra is likely to have the same effect. Long-term (months or more) overdose of ephedra or ephedrine can potentially cause kidney stones composed of ephedrine, though this is rare. Anyone with high blood pressure, heart conditions, diabetes, glaucoma, hyperthyroidism, anxiety or restlessness, impaired circulation to the brain, benign prostatic hyperplasia with residual urine accumulation, pheochromocytoma (primary adrenal tumor), and those taking MAO-inhibiting antidepressants, digitoxin, or guanethidine should consult with a physician before using any type of product containing ephedra.
