Crystalline Solid
The Uses of cephaeline
Cephaeline occurs in the ground roots ofipecac along with emetine. The Brazilian variety usually contains about 0.5%cephaeline. It is used as an emetic and anti amebic reagent.
The Uses of cephaeline
Has been used as an emetic and expectorant
What are the applications of Application
Cephaeline is an emetic and expectorant
Definition
ChEBI: A pyridoisoquinoline comprising emetam having a hydroxy group at the 6'-position and methoxy substituents at the 7'-, 10- and 11-positions.
Health Hazard
The toxicity of cephaeline is lower than thatof emetine. The toxic effects are cumula tive. Ingestion of high doses may producehypotension, muscle weakness, and gastroin testinal problems, including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
