Very complete database. Available in a format that you can take to the patient's bedside. Allows use by specialty. > > **Cons**: I would only ask that it be available in Spanish. I can also add, that I had problems accessing my account from the mobile, because I did not accept the password. I had to delete and download the application again. ----- ### "Epocrates Review" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *12 April 2019* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that I am able to easily look up drug information and dosing, and there are calculators to determine child dosing as well. It is an easy to navigate app and webpage and has information that is based on scientific reviews. There is also a drug interaction monitor that will tell you if different drugs interact. > > **Cons**: I don't have many dislikes for this application and website. I should say that I don't feel like the paid version is much different than the free version for what they offer and what I use most on the application. ----- ### "It’s ok" — 3.0/5 > **Sarah** | *13 March 2019* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it is easy to use and I can quickly remind myself of the strengths a given medication comes in. > > **Cons**: The interaction checker is vague and overinclusive, and also misses big interactions. For example, it flags Zoloft and Adderall but not Lamictal and Depakote. ----- ### "has all the information i need\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *22 September 2018* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: i love how i can easily find any of the information that i am looking for using epocrates\! so easy to navigate\! > > **Cons**: i didnt dislike anything about this software\! ----- ### "Epocrates is very helpful in medical practice. It enabled me have access to quick references." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *20 July 2018* | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the easy access to drug indications, interactions, dosages. I also enjoyed the articles that come in as well. > > **Cons**: Just some bugs that make pages take so long to load. Also i would prefer if there was a way to stream line the kind of articles one recieves on the app. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2058195/epocrates?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2058195/epocrates) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
