Ratings and reviews

The app is almost seamless. The layout of the features for each drug makes it so. The color choices for the app are soft and appealing. Having the app has made identifying the wierd brand names I keep hearing from patients and even prescriptions easier. I would like to have a layer for the images of tablets and the maybe vials. You are doing a good job. The admin is also quick to respond to mails.

I love the therapeutic note feature that has been added to the update, but a lot of other medications no longer have a note under indication and dose and they used to have so before. Also even after subscribing i still can't access the premium features like checking for drug-drug interactions. I know there's room for improvement, one way that improvement can be done is adding more medications. Thanks team Emdex. You make our day to day practice easier.

An AMAZING app i must say. And for newbies, please while registering, ensure you enter the name of your ORGANIZATION. As this is a very important detail that if left blank could deny you access. I'm still in denial as to the fact that access to ALL THAT INFORMATION is given at absolutely no cost. Completely PRO BONO guys! God bless EMDEX and I hope this app helps to ease your study/practice as it has done mine. -Nursing student, -Dhebee.
