Definition
A medical term describing a substance that both causes vomiting and has laxative properties, cleaning the body from both directions.
Etymology
From Greek 'emesis' (vomiting) combined with 'cathartic' (purgative/laxative), creating a compound medical adjective for substances with dual cleansing actions.
Kelly Says
Medieval and Renaissance doctors absolutely loved emetocathartic medicines because they believed in the theory of balancing bodily humors—they wanted to purge everything out of you, top and bottom, to 'cure' almost any illness!
