Many "old wives" swear by it. I have had several medical proffessionals tell me that it does nothing except give you horrible diarhea. My feeling is that even if it did work (or you just coincidentally go into labour right after taking it) do you really want to be dealing with loose bowels and labour and lack of privacy all at the same time? It probably is effective because I had a stomach flu at 40 weeks with my last child. The stomach cramps associated with the flu did put me into labour but at what price?
