5 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW!
"This very useful drug reference will easily fit in your lab coat pocket. The information is accurate and up to date.

★★☆☆☆
Immediately deleted this app. App stated there was a one-day functional
free trial, but I watched for almost two minutes while it couldn't even pull
up Zofran in the search window. Trial failed.
★★☆☆☆
This app looks like asking Google. Why get irritated by ads when you can use Google? Why not using Google - one app for all
★★☆☆☆
Free trial was hours not days...then have the cheek to tell me £10.49 cos
free trial is over.
★★☆☆☆
Wish it had effectiveness times and duration for medications
