Ratings and reviews

Concise and explained well. Great description and easy to read, well presented. Useful when needing to quickly refresh memory.

Limited selection of meds. Brand name meds are not consistently in the parentheses. Seroquel is listed twice within the SGAs. Experiencing a bug where if I use the search bar to look up a med, when tapped, it always directs to Citalopram.

Excellent app! Does a great job segmenting psych meds by type and providing in-depth info about dosage, method of action, side effects etc. Great app and reference tool for psychopharmacology!
