A question for anyone on this forum

I need some advice on a drug program for my PDA. For all those who remember your 3rd and 4th years, which drug program would you recommend?

I know epocrates is free, I was wondering if there are other programs that you might have found better.

Thanks!

I really don't think that there are any better drug programs then epocrates, it has almost everything that you need to know about a drug. The only additional feature that I'd like to see is what percentage of people get certain side effects, but I don't think that's worth spending money for when epocrates is free.

I pretty much agree. While its not perfect, it is the easiest to use and has most of info you'd need.

For antibiotics indications however, you need something a bit beefier like the Sanford guide which I use the paper version of.

The free epocrates is awesome. However, for more detail (but less up to date) info about certain drugs I use MosbyRx. DrDrugs and Lexi Drugs are great also.

I use tarascon for my palm and like it. A little more $ then just getting the book, but I like having it on my palm.

I use this ABX guide, it is alright
