VERY HELPFUL

I just downloaded this app, of course I put it to the test, just from what I know, and I can honestly say, it's very informative, gives you all the information you'll need. Easy to use, I haven't been through everything it offers, but so far, so good.Btw, I don't usually even take the time to write these things, I thought this one was worth doing though, and the fact it's free...no-brainer for me.

Knowledge is power

I always ask the doctor the what, why and wherefores of any prescribed drug, and the expected or anticipated results. Then I consult the appropriate Farlex references regarding medicine, medical and nursing information. At 73, it’s better to be fully informed than unpleasantly surprised. It’s not about trust (although if there’s reason for doubt, switch doc’s!) but informed decision making.

I really appreciate being able to use this dictionary. It provides excellent information for the clinician. The patient teaching section is especially helpful for the teacher in the home healthcare setting.

Great app, especially being a new nurse and hearing drugs I have never heard or have heard of them mention throughout school once and having the availability to search a med quick when you are unsure of the purpose is nice. Thank you!
