The natural drug index is so helpful, especially the interaction, side effects and contraindications. Having the app in my pocket is so efficient! -- smith1220, 2026-06-23 ### **--- "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. -- student1098, 2023-11-05 ### ***** "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! -- Medstud21, 2023-07-10 ### ***** "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. -- Msjanuary_42, 2023-01-27 ### ***-- "Audio pronunciation stops working" Cant hear the audio -- amvvicious_, 2022-08-14 ### *---- "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. -- Ashlynlovesthis, 2022-06-17 ### ***** "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 with the yearly subscription will be able to get up to date inforamtion instead of having an outdated book. -- Tune_2_it, 2021-11-09 ### *---- "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. -- Lauraa139, 2021-11-02 ### *---- "Typing bug on the mac" When typing on the search bar the selection automatically goes to the first option even when i am not finished typing the whole word. so i have to type letter then select search bar to finish typing the whole word. this bug is repetative for EVERY letter -- danru731, 2021-08-26 ### *---- "Does not work" It will not open on my laptop. -- Aramaa, 2021-04-29 [View all Davis’s Drug Guide for Nurses reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Davis’s Drug Guide for Nurses In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | 18ed #1 Drug Guide for Nurses | $38.99 | | #1 Nursing Drug Guide | $32.99 | | #1 Nursing Drug Guide 25%off | $29.49 | | #1 Nursing Drug Guide 20%off | $31.49 | | #1 Nursing Drug Guide 15%off | $33.49 | | #1 Nursing Drug Guide 15%off | $33.49 | ## Davis’s Drug Guide for Nurses Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Grossing | Canada | Medical | #80 | ## Davis’s Drug Guide for Nurses Discovered Keywords -
