For more than a decade now, healthcare professionals used Epocrates as their tool so that they may get essential therapeutic information using their devices from Palm OS and Windows Mobile. Today, the ever-reliable Epocrates RX may now be used by the iPod Touch as well as iPhone users.

When you install the Epocrates RX to your Apple devices, you must then create an account at the website of Epocrates. The registration would only take a few minutes of your precious time. Best of all, you don’t have to pay anything for the registration. At the default screen of the application, you can easily search for the medications by entering their trade name or generic name.

Whenever you key in each and every single letter of the medication that you are looking for, the Epocrates RX will show the matching entries that are included in the database made up of more than 3,000 items. Just choose one and you will see comprehensive information regarding the drug as well as the dosages that can be used by adults and kids. Moreover, the adverse reaction and even the price of the drug also appear.

As of the moment, not all drugs are still included in the database. However, the company said that they are still adding more products in their application.
