1. 5/5Accurate and Absolutely necessary

   If you take more than 2 pills a day, you need this app. Not only does it allow you to put in all your Rx AND over-the-counter drugs, but it notifies you of any contraindications & rates them from major (severe) to minor. It also explains the best way to take them, will let you know if there’s a recall even before it goes really public, and you can set the App up to notify you to take your medication. It will also check the Rx against your allergy list. Just recently , the app notified me that a new beta blocker I was prescribed had a major interaction with one of my chemos. It took my oncologist a week to find the source of that information in a tiny little article in JAMA, and it was absolutely correct. Things could have gone very south without that information and it was not in any of the Rx literature. This App also provides vital medical information when you or anyone else needs to know what you take in an emergency. You can also print out all the information either as a full sheet or as wallet cards to keep with you. The App is part of the WebMD/ Medline online medical resouce which is one of the best authoritative & updated sources of medical information .

2. 5/5Very helpful

   I take a number of drugs for high blood pressure, arthritis, sciatica type nerve pain and and so on. I wonder often whether these meds are compatible, or not. I worry about side affects. My doctor tells me what I try to remember to ask but this app l lets me dig in further. Also in the tools it allows you to receive emails if something is discovered that was concerning like a med that is being discontinued. Also if you are wondering about a drug (not necessarily prescribed yet) and wonder if it would interact with other meds you are taking already- it can tell you that too. If I remember right you can set up separate lists for other people in your family also. Also I’ve found some over the counter supplements are included. I loaded this app on my iPhone and one time in the hospital found it really handy when asked about what meds I was taking. In my experience, it was well worthwhile adding and setting up.

3. 5/5So helpful and convenient!

   I’m chronically ill so I have several medications to keep track of plus me ones that I’m getting prescribed often for infections. The doctor say they don’t interact but I’ve had some bad reactions and didn’t know why. Well, now thanks to this app I can tell you why!! I even have to split my vitamins up and take them at a different time because they’ll interfere with meds. And I have to take my metoprolol at a two hour later window now both morning and night because it was interfering with my one of my other meds and causing an increase in my heart rate which was the opposite affect of why I’m taking it! Since then, problem solved. I needed more potassium because of muscle cramps thanks to ehlers danslos so I ordered some but added it on here and saw the LIFE THREATENING affect they’d have on my because of heart issues I had and basically told me DONT TAKE TAKE THEM. So I cancelled them right away. Over all this app is awesome and wonderful!! No doctor or pharmacist can do what this app can because they can’t keep all this information in their head. So this app is a must to be proactive about your own health! A++++ from me and thank you!!!

4. 4/5Great App so far, but the registration process is beyond frustrating ‘

   All I really wanted was a simple, convenient prescription list to take with me to doctor appointments. Nothing more. Nothing less. I wondered why I needed to register just to access the list but gave it a shot. The registration process includes one of those ‘Im not a robot’ things...”check all pictures with cars...” No exaggeration, I spent nearly 1/2 hour going through this. Every time I finished one, another popped up, easily a dozen until finally saw a “skip” button, and finally “Thank you for....” So, clicked on Drug list..... then, “Enter a Profile” Come On Already! So, I now I have my Drug List. Love it! Put in several drugs, it not only makes a nice list with dosages you can take to your doctors but it automatically detects interactions between your drugs. I’ve only had this for a couple of hours so once I get into it a little more, maybe I’ll come back with a better review. What I’ve seen so far, the app is great, but seriously, the registration process is a pain! I nearly gave up.

5. 5/5MY GO TO PLACE FOR EVERYTHING!

   With the oh so many things going on in the drug industry and the greed of the cheap manufacturers I find it hard to remember what each round white tablet is and I know exactly where to go and what to do. I was a first responder on 9/11 and have Congestive Heart Failure and BIG Pulmonary issues, the skinny me started to work out for pain control issues, not wanting any narcotics at all and my field I always required a fair degree of knowledge about drugs and the drug industry which was once quite a challenge before I found this incredible app. As my life changed it is I who am now always reliant and in need of as much knowledge as I can find although for myself as a priority, I can always rely on what is provided here by searching for my needs as I sadly cannot rely upon my facilitating MD’s, but I can rely on the information I get here and always check which might not interact well or is contraindicated for me as most MDs dont bother. Thank you For it ALL over the years, it has saved lives before, and now I can include my own, and that is quite a lot to say about what I can get here!

2. 5/5

   it's a load off my mind, to know exactly which meds interact with other meds and what kind of side effects I should be aware of. I can't praise this app enough.
