Natural drugs too

So many of my patients take supplements too. The natural drug index is so helpful, especially the interaction, side effects and contraindications. Having the app in my pocket is so efficient!

Must Have An Account

I am looking for the free trial version to see if this is an app that I will be able to use. I am unable to see a sample of the information and when I tried to contact the developer, it requires me to create an account. I do not know if I want an account. I don’t want an account if it is not a product that will not meet my needs. I’m not willing to create an account until I know if this is something I will purchase. I’d like to see a sample of the information and understand how the app works!

Great app, but please enable landscape view

Thanks for producing a great app with a very easy to use design! A quick suggestion - please enable landscape view! I have an iPad with the Apple keyboard stand and not having the ability to view in landscape makes it quite inconvenient. Otherwise, this is a great app! Thank you!

a little generic for price

the layout is not conducive to learning medications with trade and generic names. Seems very basic for how much I paid.

The best nursing drug guide

This Davis’s Nursing Guide is so helpful. It has all the drugs listed that I searched for and each drug topic has detailed information, built in drug calculators, nursing implications, etc.. I have a couple of other Nursing apps from Skyscape including IV Medications by Gahart and a Lab Diagnosis app and all very useful! Love the format and ease of use too!

Very frustrating - Don't waste your time or money

I bought this app to use during my RN program. After paying for the annual subscription, I could not use the app because it kept prompting me to update the app. I would follow the link to the app store, no update. I decided to delete the app and reinstall it on my computer. BIG mistake. Now my subscription is removed completely and the "try before you buy" prompt is showing. I give up.

unable to enlarge text

I love how much easier it is to navigate the information, but I bought the app because the hard copy is so difficult to read. Unfortunately there is now way to enlarge the texton the app. My computer wont enlarge or zoom it either, which has never happened to me before. The text is extremly small. Maybe size 10 font.

Doesn’t work on new phone

Very disappointed my old phone broke and I got a brand new iPhone. I must pay for the app again. Not gonna happen. I don’t understand how a $40 purchase disappeared in my account. Good way to lose a customer.

Nursing Student

the book was recommneded for my class, wasnt a requirement. Ended up subscrinbing for a year to the drug guide as the class began to require medication look ups. It is alot easy to use and gives all necessary info in one location instead of having to do multiple web searches. with the yearly subscription will be able to get up to date inforamtion instead of having an outdated book.

Once again fabulous app!

For last 7 years I am purchasing medical apps from Skyscape and everytime they come up with something new! This time they have made this Drug app available for Mac. It is so convenient to use. When I am at my clinic I can use on phone. And when I am at my home, I can use it on my MacBook. It is so convenient!!

Can’t Access On Other Devices

Despite paying good money, you cannot access this book on other devices. You can get the same book on kindle for way less ($24), and you can access it on any device that can download kindle.

Very useful app!

I was happy to find more high alert coverage and patient safety information in this app than in any other drug guide. Also, this app is integrated with 800+ built-in weight-based drug dosing calculators. All this makes my life easy. Highly recommended.

Purchase

I purchased this life time access, but unable to use it or sign in to use. I contacted them several times without success. They simply do not respond. I had to purchase another drug guide to use. I don't like this company, I'm really not typing all that has taken place. Keep your money and run...

Could use improvement

I buy this app every year. I’m not happy about this purchase. The drug information is all over the place. I enjoyed the picture, class, indication and generic drug info right at the beginning. It’s a waste of time to have to scroll drug info. Maybe if you could customize your display. Otherwise I’m not happy. I would not recommend this app, maybe use the previous year, until the creator fix this app.
