Terrible trial with book no access to the medications

Money, hungry app

You purchase the app and continues to make you purchase more and more.

Get it! You’ll be glad you did!

I love it! I’m a nursing student and I love being able to access my drug guide on my phone or tablet. It makes learning so much easier and I don’t have to worry about dragging a heavy book to clinical or labs. It’s great!

Update Needed
     
by Slaglec88 · July 8, 2025

Updates needed more often! Looked up a medication today and it wasn’t listed! Had to use Google instead!

Love this!

I absolutely love this app! I’m in nursing school and having all the meds and updated meds right on my phone is super helpful. I have used this for class and in clinical. It gives so much information! I’m keeping this even when I become a nurse because it’s a great resource!

I have Davis’s Drug Guide for years, student, Paramedic and Hospital as well as family. The updates are good!

Paid and does not work
     
by Kayliesha88 · September 20, 2024

Paid subscription and not even Tylenol drug information pulls up.

Best med app!
     
by Guitar 13 · November 8, 2024

This app is incredible! It is designed where you don’t even need Internet or Wi-Fi so if you’re stuck in a med room and have to google something, you can always have your answer at hand. You can make notes which is great. After my shifts, I use the recent search list to review. I’ve looked up to feel more comfortable with them for next shift.
