VERY HELPFUL

I just downloaded this app, of course I put it to the test, just from what I know, and I can honestly say, it's very informative, gives you all the information you'll need. Easy to use, I haven't been through everything it offers, but so far, so good.Btw, I don't usually even take the time to write these things, I thought this one was worth doing though, and the fact it's free...no-brainer for me.

I really appreciate being able to use this dictionary. It provides excellent information for the clinician. The patient teaching section is especially helpful for the teacher in the home healthcare setting.

Great app, especially being a new nurse and hearing drugs I have never heard or have heard of them mention throughout school once and having the availability to search a med quick when you are unsure of the purpose is nice. Thank you!

I purchased the ad free version of this app so that I could access important interaction information regarding an antidepressant medication that I take. This app had zero information available beyond a simple description of the drug. This app may be adequate for people taking the most common drugs only, but I would question its comprehensiveness regarding interactions for anything because some drugs are left out. I simply trashed it after 5 minutes of use.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the app was not helpful for you. As we are always looking to add new sources, it is possible that more medications, and more information about each medication, will be added in the future.
