When you don’t have time to rummage through the book or a newer medication isn’t in there, it’s here! The app is simple to use and you can save the medications you run into the most. I use this app every day and I love it! It’s worth the price, I promise!
  4. [R12] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 3/5 · US They need and update: It’s quick and convenient but they need an update. Too many errors and wrong information. For example I go check for Furrous Sulfate and the class is Antiemtic ???it’s suppose to be Blood former/Coagulator
  5. [R3] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 3/5 · US Helpful if you have time: This app is incredibly helpful for its accuracy, layout and and information however can be difficult to use in a clinical setting because of how long it takes to load each page
  6. [R6] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 3/5 · US Comment: Difficult to find what I needed
  7. [R4] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 1/5 · US Nobody should have to pay an annual subscription to retain access one book: It’s an example of how we exploit each other even as we lament being exploited by larger corporate interests.
  8. [R9] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 3/5 · US Can add to new phone: Love the app itself, do not like the fact that when you add the app to new phone you can not restore. They want you to pay for another subscription. Maybe it’s me but this has happened on two different phones.
  9. [R10] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 1/5 · US Free trail?: Where is this free trail? I downloaded the app and any I click on ask me to pay for a subscription. Haven’t been able to preview anything.

  13. [R15] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 3/5 · US Short comings are becoming evident: 1. The product can only be used on my apple account; therefore, I am unable to access the product on my laptop through an internet portal. Such as that offered at Davis’s drugguide.com - Note, subscription to this app, does not provide membership to other Davis’s drug guide resources. 2. Product is missing drug classifications. Ex. Antacids
  14. [R24] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 3/5 · US Not available for MacBook: Tried pulling it up on my MacBook so I can transfer content from app to a word doc that I need to print to have in class and was unable to do so. When I typed “davis drug book” in on google it took me to the davis drug book unbound website. That’s when I realized this app isn’t the official davis drug book app, with the official one you can log in on google and also down
  15. [R85] Saunders Comp Review NCLEX RN 1/5 · US Bought the book and have to pay for the app: Why in the world do I have to pay for the app when I bought the book?! Should be able to use both. Easier and convenient to download the app and use it on the go rather than lugging around that big book.

  17. [R105] Saunders Comp Review NCLEX RN 3/5 · US Good app!: Good app but you only get the first 3 units of the book. It would be nice if the app was included with the purchase of the book. Why would I buy the book then turn around and purchase the full app for another $45?
  18. [R119] Saunders Comp Review NCLEX RN 2/5 · US I bought the book, but have to pay for the app??: i bought the text book and although i can use some online features (as it contains an access code), i don't understand why i'm unable to use the app.... there is a section online that directs you to use this app with it, yet wants you to pay (even tho some questions seem word for word from the book). would be 5 stars if i didn't have to pay another
  19. [R53] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 4/5 · US Subscription renewal.: Great app, however I turned off the subscription when I was done with Nursing School. I recently updated my payment information on my phone, and yet I was still charged. Now it's not giving me an option to turn off the subscription.
  20. [R56] Davis Drug Guide For Nurses 2/5 · US CANCEL FREE TRIAL: No where does it say how to cancel the free trial. I do not want to purchase. I want to cancel before I get charged.
