1. The Epic Ape is a well-designed, atmospheric slot. The bar for visuals has been set high of late. We've seen more stunning graphics and animation in some of the most recent releases on the market. But this is a minor detail, because the glossy, hi-definition images here serve the theme well.
2. Epic ape is set in the backdrop of a jungle with symbols on the reels include regular card deck symbols as well as chameleons, frogs, panthers and jaguars. The most rewarding symbol is the ape itself of course which gives you 300 coins for a 6 of a kind combination across a pay line.

Syrup of ipecac (/ˈɪpɪkæk/), commonly referred to as ipecac, is a drug that was once widely used as an expectorant (in low doses) and a rapid-acting emetic (in higher doses). It is obtained from the dried rhizome and roots of Carapichea ipecacuanha from which it derives its name.

In particular, the rapidly induced forceful vomiting produced by ipecac was considered for many years to be an important front-line treatment for orally ingested poisons. However, subsequent studies (including a comprehensive 2005 meta-study) revealed the stomach purging produced by ipecac to be far less effective at lowering total body poison concentrations than the adsorption effect of oral activated charcoal (which is effective through the entire gastrointestinal tract and is often coupled with whole bowel irrigation). Ipecac also presents a small risk of overdose (being a mild poison itself) and a major risk of esophagitis and aspiration pneumonia if used to purge corrosive poisons. Having long been replaced (even in the emetic role) by more effective medications, the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists now advises that 'Ipecac syrup is no longer recommended for routine management of outpatient ingestions of medications or other chemicals.'^[1]

Epic Ape is a slot machine by Playtech.According to the number of players searching for it, Epic Ape is a moderately popular slot. It's not up there with the most widely-known titles, but it has captured the attention of some slot machine players, so give it a try for free to see for yourself.

Preparation[edit]

The commercial preparation of ipecac consists of 1/14 of an alcoholic extract of the roots and rhizomes of Carapichea ipecacuanha. The rest is composed of glycerin, sugar syrup, and methylparaben. Ipecac root itself is a poison, but in this diluted form, its ability to induce immediate vomiting means that the syrup is seldom fatal.^{[2][citation needed]}

Use[edit]

Ipecac was used in cough mixtures as an expectorant or an emetic from the 18th until the early 20th century.^{[citation needed]} For instance, Ipecac and opium were used to produce Dover's powder, which was used in syrup form.^{[citation needed]}

In 1965, the FDA approved the sale of up to one ounce of syrup of ipecac without a prescription. At the time it was approved, its use was recommended by the AAP, AAPCC, AMA, and the FDA's medical advisory board as a method to induce vomiting 'for quick first-aid use in the home, under medical supervision', for use in cases of accidental poisoning.^[2][3]

Current guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics, however, strongly advise against this and in fact recommend the disposal of any syrup of ipecac present in the home.^[4] Many toxicological associations have also issued position papers recommending against its use as a first-line treatment for most ingested poisons,^[5] because of a lack of evidence that syrup of ipecac actually helps improve the outcome in cases of poisoning. Moreover, accidental overdose of ipecac can result when administered in the home.^[6] When dealing with poisoning cases in the hospital, it became difficult to obtain a differential diagnosis when syrup of ipecac had been administered, as this can add further symptoms.

A 2005 review by an HRSA-funded scientific panel concluded that vomiting alone does not reliably remove poisons from the stomach. The study suggested that indications for use of ipecac syrup were rare, and patients should be treated by more effective and safer means. Additionally, its potential side effects, such as lethargy, can be confused with the poison's effects, complicating diagnosis. The use of ipecac may also delay the use of other treatments (e.g., activated charcoal, whole bowel irrigation, or oral antidotes) or make them less effective.^[7]

Misuse[edit]

Ipecac has been used by individuals with bulimia nervosa as a means to achieve weight loss through induced vomiting. Repeated use in this manner is believed to cause damage to the heart and muscles, which can ultimately result in the user's death.^[8] Misuse of ipecac has been blamed for the death of singer Karen Carpenter in 1983.^[9] It has also been used as an agent for Münchausen syndrome by proxy.^[10]

Mechanism of action[edit]

The actions of ipecac are mainly those of major alkaloids, emetine (methylcephaeline) and cephaeline.^{[citation needed]} They both act locally by irritating the gastric mucosa and centrally by stimulating the medullary chemoreceptor trigger zone to induce vomiting.^{[citation needed]}

Discontinuation[edit]

Episcope Meaning

Ipecac has been found to have minimal health benefits, and is ultimately ineffective at purging the body of poisonous substances. It was initially discontinued due to production costs and lack of raw materials. As the ASHP advises: 'Ipecac syrup is no longer recommended for routine management of outpatient ingestions of medications or other chemicals.' Humco and Paddock Laboratories, the only two remaining manufacturers, both stopped production of ipecac syrup in 2010.^[11]

A heavily cited position statement outlines critical details of its effectiveness:

In experimental studies the amount of marker removed by ipecac was highly variable and diminished with time. There is no evidence from clinical studies that ipecac improves the outcome of poisoned patients and its routine administration in the emergency department should be abandoned. There is insufficient data to support or exclude ipecac administration soon after poison ingestion. Ipecac may delay the administration or reduce the effectiveness of activated charcoal, oral antidotes, and whole bowel irrigation. Ipecac should not be administered to a patient who has a decreased level or impending loss of consciousness or who has ingested a corrosive substance or hydrocarbon with high aspiration potential.^[12]
