Refund
I had to ask for a refund. Every time I look for drug name, I can’t find it.
Not impressed
I am in a Nursing program and the majority of the drug cards I have to fill out are not in this app. I will not be recommending or renew this app!
No trial
I’d like to try the full app to see if it actually holds drug information I need, but only a partial version is available for free. I’m not willing to purchase something without knowing the information is there and as an ER nurse I come across a lot of drugs that are not included in most drug guides.
Scam
I paid for the yearly subscription and all the information are still locked. Wrote an email to the service department and I have yet to get a response. I’m so disappointed.
Great
As a nurse, it a great and practical app
Only half the medications I needed to look up
I’m a nursing student and also work in a long term care facility. I like how they have things set up but could use a little more information and needs a lot more of the common medications used. I had to switch to a different app because I wasn’t able to get the information I need on a regular basis.
Wish list
Just wished The book listed The metabolism and elimination - organ/ Organ system
Terrible
Most of the drugs I have to look up in blocks 3 and 4 are not there, ridiculous!
Waisted money
I am a nursing student. I needed more resources, so I purchased it $39.99. There is no information about most of medications that i needed know. Only one was available hahahaha. Can i get my money back. I DO NOT want to use it.
