Drugs & Medications for Negative User Reviews
✓ ParamedicalThis application is aimed at the lay person. If you are in the medical profession DO NOT BOTHER..Version: 0
✓ Pill identifier doesn't workMisleading... I bought this specifically because I thought that it had a pill identifier... It's very misleading... It claims to have one and even appears to have one... But if you try to use it it just opens up some external website. Bottom line is it doesn't really have a pill identifier and they should not advertise that it does. The rest of the app is ok, not bad but pretty mediocre but at least the other parts do actually work..Version: 0
✓ Keeps crashingWhen I try to search a drug the app keeps closing..Version: 2.3
✓ TABLET NDC#: 0046-0421 (Brand Names: Inderal, Innopran) Propranolol isNot to shabby.Version: 0
✓ Useful AppOk for home reference but a few improvements to be made to hit the spot for professionals and academics..Version: 1.5
✓ Not impressedWas hoping for much more - lack of Australian names for a start.Version: 1.5
✓ Could be betterNot enough info. Good for United States trade names of medicines only..Version: 0
✓ MrDoes not have a large % of our local drugs, Not recommended for South Africa!.Version: 1.5
✓ DrA good start but needs further development along the lines of the BNF for dose information etc. Worth spending time on it as the idea and structure is good and would be useful for professionals as a one stop data base.Version: 0
✓ No use to professionalsAs a uk doctor this app is useless and doesn't contain the information I need. I'm sticking with the Formulary app which gives full access to the bnf abd only costs a couple of quid..Version: 0
✓ No in depth infoThe app is alright for what it costs. It is a quick reference on what category and use a drug has, not much more. No talk about how it's metabolized, excreted, how it works, or interactions with other drugs. 2 stars as it is cheaply priced..Version: 1.5
✓ UsefulGreat app and easy to use.Version: 1.5
✓ DissapointmentWas hoping for an systems based format with common drugs for each diseases, however due to A-Z format it is almost impossible to use. Only useful for someone who wants to find information on particular medicine they are on. Something like the BNF better but much more expensive..Version: 1.5
✓ Not too badToo many app for medicine. Seems all cost some. This app isnt too bad..Version: 1.5
✓ Not bad but...An adequate app. The scrolling seems a tad buggy. When you change 'windows', the scroll position will be at the position it was at in the previous window. Also, I would urge the developers to integrate various medical calculators such as Aa gradient, BMI, etc to make this app stand out amongst its competitors..Version: 0
✓ Barely UsefulApp does NOT give the various mg makeup of medications such as Norco, Augmentin, Vicodin. $0.99 is too much for this app..Version: 2.3
✓ Avoid if you're in aus!As said, very poor for aus users. Searched quite a few drugs but couldn't find them..Version: 0
✓ Mamaw JonesLove this app! Wish it included more info on side effects cause I've had to go to other websites after finding my medication on this site for additional information. Also would like if it would prompt on misspelled names to the correct drug and spelling. Thank you for listening and hopefully applying some of the suggestions!.Version: 1.5
✓ InterestingIt's good to know what drugs your taking and any side effects, interesting covers it..Version: 0
✓ More development neededNot enough drugs. Could make it more like the BNF.Version: 0
✓ RubbishCouldn't find medicines like aspirin and paracetamol, rubbish app.Version: 0
✓ Limited helpUS app. Doesn't make it easy to look up UK drugs that use different names to those used on US. This isn't make clear in its description..Version: 1.5
✓ MrIncomplete listing,apps does not update on new drugs,customer service does respond on inquiries,not enough information on contradiction.Version: 1.5
✓ Let downNot for pros..it's a pity that an app with all the work that's obviously gone into it, is vastly lacking in a lot of areas, it doesn't even have a section for side effects which is obviously important too..very disapointed..Version: 0
✓ Ok not excelentNot all drugs are avilable. It will nice to do a multiple search, and search drugs by common name rather than Latin names. Pictures would be nice as well..Version: 0
✓ Needs workThe information is not that useful. The search doesn't do partial searches, offer alternatives for misspellings, or search as you type. You pretty much have to get it right. Then it offers a dozen of the same drug, but different manufacturers, which is useless duplication. The FDA button locks it up. You have to quit. Really poor implementation of what could be a useful and vital app..Version: 0
✓ CrapCrap.Version: 0
✓ COULD have been a great AppSeveral things really bother me with this App. 1. They do not provide a field where you can ID the user. Multiple users cannot use this App. 2. I spent a considerable amount entering my medications. Afterwards I was shocked to learn that the App does not provide a feature that allowers the user to actually have a list of their meds. I took it for granted that an App that promises to provide you a listing of your meds. 3. I really want my money back; but Apple is too smart for that. They know that all too often a poorly developed App will slip through the cracks. I will remove this App ASAP. Along with removal will come another One-Star rating. Too Bad. I had high hopes..Version: 0
✓ Wasted time and moneyCan't even find common drugs. What a waste. Definitely not for Aussie reference.Version: 1.5
✓ Missing many drugsI was excited to get this to look up my medications. I could only find 2 of my 10 Rx and most of them are generic. The pill identifier was a joke. It seriously lacks most colors, it doesn't label the shapes until you already enter a drug and then back up to a completely different screen. They're arranged by drug maker but are in no way comprehensive of the available makers or even the meds made by one maker. DO NOT RECOMMEND. It's not worth the money, or even the time it takes to download..Version: 1.5
✓ MediocreSome drugs are not available.. Need to make favorites in an alphabetical list format.Version: 1.5
✓ Waste of time in the UKWanted a good list of common uk drugs, this is not it. Even really basic drugs are missing, such as ventolin / salbutamol. Also, I could not work out how to get a list of drugs by category, despite this being quoted as a feature. As a uk based paramedic, this app is no good and is not recommended..Version: 1.5
✓ Total crapWaste of time and of no real benefit, lacks data and google does a better job.!.Version: 0
✓ No goodI paid for this App and every time I try opening it the App crash. Fix it or refund me my money.😡.Version: 2.3
✓ Useful starting pointUseful brief descriptions of drug usages..Version: 1.5
✓ Limited usefulnessThis app has a limited database. Also does not save your favourites locally therefore always needs a network connection. Would be nice to have a more extensive database and ability to locally save favourites FDA info, although probably copyright issues.Version: 0
✓ App review disappointedI typed in five well known drugs and the app couldn't find them. Am pretty disappointed as I need it to identify meds that my rehab clients are taking to determine effects on bp hr and exercise capacity. I will be deleting this app asap..Version: 1.5
✓ Nothing greatGood summary for the drugs avaliable but v.Poor for aus users.Version: 0
✓ Not for AussiesCompletely agree with the comment below. Many of the drugs available in australia, aren't listed at all in this app. Also, it would be helpful if you added a "category" search. For example, hypnotics, antipsychotics, antianxieties etc. This would make particular drugs easier to find. Similarly, adding a search tool for specific diagnosis', or symptoms could be helpful. On the up side, having availability to the CMI for each drug is great. :).Version: 0
✓ B bWast of time Not much info How do i get rid of this app.Version: 1.5
✓ Drugs & medsThis is a good app to refer to..Version: 0
✓ GoodIt is helpful.Version: 1.5
✓ Ok I suppose.Useful for reference but not that applicable to direct use in pharmacy I think. Why can't we just have the whole BNF in an app that doesn't require internet connection?!.Version: 0
✓ DNo good for Australian drug searches. Does not recognise local trade names..Version: 0
✓ SuggestionJe suis paramedic au Québec et je me sert de votre programme au travail mais souvent les meds d'ici sont introuvable et je trouve ça bien dommage!.Version: 1.5
✓ DrugsDoes not list all UK drugs. e.g. Candesartan is absent. Otherwise, quite useful..Version: 1.5
✓ Not for medical professionals!Although this is a good app., as a medical professional it does not give me the information I am looking for..Version: 0
✓ MsNot bad.Version: 0
✓ DrugsThis ap does not cover all of the drugs.Version: 1.5
✓ Useless in AustraliaThis app does not have the brand names of even the most common drugs in Australia (e.g., Panadol) and so is of almost no use here..Version: 1.5
✓ DisappointingDisappointing. As a clinician I have probably looked up 20 different drugs and only found one. Get more from google. Could be great but needs development..Version: 0
✓ RetiredEvery generic name I enter just are nit listed.Version: 0
✓ New update made it crashUpdate causes crash won't open tries but crashes. Uninstalled then reinstalled same thing, now I have nothing should have left it alone :(.Version: 2.2
✓ Good appGood app needs further development and could do with more info to make it more like the BNF. Ideal as a quick reference guide..Version: 0
✓ LpnEasy to use! Great If u only need to look up the basics. One thing that could make it better is if it would use key letters without having to type in the full name of the drug. Other than that I would definitely recommend it..Version: 0
✓ Bad really butThis app is incomplete, there is a lot of drug that you use everyday that you can not found.Version: 0
✓ GAY APPLICATIONDon't buy it..Version: 1.5
✓ InterestingIndex search often crashes on lookup..Version: 2.3
✓ PointlessUsed this to verify certain generic drugs were same as medium and didnt even have a clue..Version: 2.3
✓ Great for quick findUseful application and easy to use.Version: 1.5
✓ Drugs referencingYes more useful in the US I imagine, however, it's a useful cheap addition to the tool box of reference material.Version: 1.5
✓ Poor appVery basic. No dosage range provided. Most of the useful info is linked to 3rd party pages. Not worth $0.99..Version: 1.5
✓ DrugsUseful in my line of work..Version: 0
✓ Good but could be betterInformative app but would like to see the drug classification under pill name in search results (ie. class I or II) to help aid officers in possession cases..Version: 2.2
✓ MsI have tried to looked up many standard drugs and this App can not find them. I am really disappointed and feel this App is a waste of time as a nurse I have to revert back to my text books :-(.Version: 1.5
✓ *FAILThe first medication I searched, was not found....then the second one I searched was also not found! They are not that obscure and have been around for many years. I suffer Crohns disease and often need to take medications that I would like to know about. This application has not satisfied my needs at all..Version: 0
✓ Too Basic Even for Nursing StudentsPharmacology not explained. I want to know what action my drug is taking. Not enough info on IM or IV dosing. Does not recognise Australian trade names..Version: 0
✓ ReviewNot bad for a quick reference for a free price..Version: 1.5
✓ Everybody should knowBefore using any drug every should know it's function, mode of action,side effect.I like so much .......Version: 1.5
✓ Shuts DownIt shuts down now as soon as I open it..Version: 2.3
✓ Getting there...I wish there was more info for each drug... As a nursing student and having to make hundreds of med cards for pts during clinicals, it would be nice if the following info was included... Generic name, trade name, recommended dose, pharmacological action, clinical uses, side effects, drug/food interactions, and any implications that need to be done before administering the drug..Version: 0
✓ Healthcare professionalNeeds more frequent updates. Also info should be inbeded in app and not directed to outside website..Version: 1.5
✓ MeHas not improved 2012 still no good in the U K.I think it's wrong to be charged for an app of this standard which I put down to apple just out to make money.Version: 1.5
✓ UsefulI'm a first yr student midwife and have found this quick And useful x.Version: 0
✓ ParamedicWish I'd read these reviews first. Got excited over potential then letdown over the reality. Wouldn't have it if they paid me the $1.19.....Version: 1.5
✓ No good for aussiesWish I had read reviews first. Should be able to pick country of choice for meds. We have similar thing here but very very expensive $170 per year subscription and when you don't pay again it stops working. Otherwise it's pretty good and the pill checker is a great idea..Version: 0
✓ Old app was greatI don't know which fool decided that having to input in the pill identifier info only to redirect me a second prompt for the same information, but they broke what was once a useful app. You should not need my location to use this app and despite constantly telling it that I will NOT NOT NOT turn on location services and approve that function, it nags me to do so. App is now deleted and I will download something more useful than this once great app..Version: 2.2
✓ JunkDon’t waste money. App keeps closing..Version: 2.3
✓ UselessJust crashes every time I try and type for certain medications then immediately closes. Waste of time. Uninstalled..Version: 2.3
✓ If your a professional DONTStates drug indication and contraindication. Info is basic and limited. Doesn't mention side effects or usual dose. Contraindications is ridiculously limited. Too basic for any professional to use.Version: 1.5
✓ NurseIt needs more drugs on it to be more useful to me at work, but I do find it very useful for the drugs it does have and it's easy to use..Version: 1.5
✓ I'mauserLike number 1.Version: 0
✓ DisappointedI found some drugs that other apps did not have especially non US brands although not having French brands was a let down especially that they are quite prevalent in many countries. It would have been useful if the dosage info was given as well as other info normally found on the literature in the box. Sent while on the go.Version: 1.5
✓ No goodRating zero. Should have read the reviews. Wasted money. Can't find even common drugs in Australia..Version: 0
✓ Very poor for Australian usersDon't waste your money if you're from Australia - you're better off looking up medications on the web.Version: 1.5
✓ It's okIt's but not enough UK or European drug references..Version: 1.5
✓ For average user.This app is geared more for the non medical user. Pros: clean easy to read menus, fast, correct pricing at 0.99, less dependent on Internet connection. Cons: anemic on number of meds in data base, search may need the name of company making the drug, limited dosages available. Not a bad first app for drugs. A step up maybe needed..Version: 1.5
✓ Where are the details?Not enough info to be useful to medical personnel..Version: 0
✓ Drugs & medicationsNot a good app for Canadian health care professionals. No Canadian content..Version: 1.5
✓ Don't buy itNot good. wanna refound. not much information..Version: 0
