U70%
by U####:

Everyone recognizes this book/manufacturer as its popular between nursing school however they need to get their act updated with changing times. Your spelling must be spot on. you often need generic name to find a drug and it always crashes on first opening (works once you re open it again). It also lost my registration email so i was unable to recover full version after phone whipe. I moved on to Davis drug book. Quicker and more user friendly. Yes its more expensive but worth it.

G70%
by G####:

I originally loved this app, subscribed and gave it 5 stars. That was in January. It is Now the end of July and I am deleting it and unsubscribing. NOT user friendly, and very slow. When I need to look up a med, I need to see it now. Not after 5 minutes of screwing around with this app. I love their book which is easier and faster than this app. Real garbage!

B70%
by B####:

I have a promotional email from Lippincott saying the cost should be $19.99 however in the app wants $24.99. & I have no way to fix this.

O70%
by O####:

This app is great in content but crashes the first time you open it every time. Really unreliable too. I was at work and it kept saying "document not found" turns out it needed an update but I expect an app of this cost to run smoothly. I used to use Davis and I will be going back to Davis once my subscription runs out
