Answers:
One reason it is hard to get ipecac these days is that most experts don't think your should vomit after poisoning!. Many poisons can damage the esophagus, both "going down" and "comming up"!.

The best poison control is to keep all hazerdous chemicals, medicines, and vitamins out of the reach of children, pets, and others who might misuse them!. In the US, we have a national network of Poison Control Centers that give information on avoiding poisoning and helping a poisoning victim until help arrives!. If Australia does not have a similar organization, maybe your doctor can give you some resources!.

Why are you seeking to induce vomiting!? This is not a normal thing to try to do at home!

If you know someone who has ingested a toxic substance, they must see a doctor immediately as a medical emergency!. Please do not try to treat at home, because it can make the situation far, far worse!. If the person needs urgent attention, put them in the recovery position and ring a doctor to get advice!. If you go ahead and make someone vomit, without knowing what they've taken, you can make the situation worse!. For example, if a patient has ingested something very alkali, making them throw up can damage the oesophagus and throat!. If they have ingested something petroleum-based, you can give them pneumonia by making them throw up!.

However, this sounds suspiciously like a question from a wannabe bulimic!. I don't think I'd be helping you by telling you how to make yourself sick!. I don't want to sound harsh, but if you are thinking of making yourself throw up, you should go and talk to a counsellor!. Eating disorders are not glamorous or fun!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't ever use salty water, if you get the solution wrong it can seriously damage your health!.
Best way to induce vomiting yourself is just to stick your fingers into your throat, not pleasant but works every time!
If you need to induce vomiting in somebody else, maybe due to ingestion of something harmful, you should call the medical services and ask them for advice!. Sometimes it's better not to induce vomiting but instead to dilute with water or milk, or to give an antidote!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you go to a pharmacy, although we dont have ipecac here in OZ, surely there would be something similar they can sell!.
Honestly I had no idea you couldnt get ipecac here though, I guess Ive never had a need for it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
