Reviews

Easy to use, up-to-date, and comprehensive

This drug guide app is easy to use, up-to-date, and comprehensive. The flow of tabs makes sense and each chapter has a table of contents. On the chapters, you can easily create a note on a certain part by highlighting and typing in the box that pops up. The new drug category keeps you up to date. The appendices on specific topics like scheduled drugs and abbreviations are brief and effective. The sections I liked the most were “quick study” and “practice the test” because it will show you an explanation for which answer(s) are correct and incorrect. The most useful content is the generic index that allows you to choose a category of drug to see their important details. One suggestion I can offer for this section is changing the list name to something along the lines of “generic drug list” for more clarity. Other improvements I can suggest are the aesthetics and interactivity. I think the addition of a variety of exam questions, games, and graphics would grasp the users attention for longer. Even though the NCLEX is multiple choose, questions aimed for active recall will have longer lasting impacts. I would also like to see test exam scores over time to visualize improvement. Overall, this drug guide app is up-to-date, comprehensive, and easy to use. I will definitely be using the NCLEX-style questions to practice for my future pharmacology exams and eventually, the NCLEX.
