This app is perfectly designed for nursing students. The straightforward terminology makes it approachable, and the clear formatting ensures that all the essential information is easy to find without feeling overwhelmed. It is also a fantastic study tool, and I have found myself referencing it regularly for assignments and exams.

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.

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.
