  • Bait & Switch

    I have an institutional subscription that has to be rE registered annually, did the usual, and the (expletive expletive expletive) app would not stop saying my subscription was expiring until I clicked ‘confirm your subscription in the App store’. I saw something that said ‘$0.0’ and signed OK. Then I see a receipt from Apple for a paid subscription. Lexicomp app engineers who created this ‘bug’, app program managers who approved it, may the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits.

  • App suddenly stops working

    I hope you aren’t relying on this for a job or to take care of patients cause it doesn’t always work when you need it. I needed to ID some drugs on the fly. Opened app. It won’t let me use drug ID without a sync. I sync 108 mb over 5 mins. Sync fails. Still unable to use. Unacceptable. How about a way to get to the “filter drugs” index from the main screen? So I don’t have to click through Library > Lexi Drugs > Drugs to get to the “filter drugs” index which is the only index I need to quickly get to. Sorry, searching from the home screen brings up too much junk and it is still several clicks to get to a drug monograph.

    I am a third year medical student who just started clinical rotations. We were told by our school that Lexicomp was covered through our UpToDate subscription, yet my personal account has still been charged $29.99.

  • Automatic subscription

    I apparently unwittingly ordered this, and with automatic renewal I don't know how long I paid for this, but I NEVER USED LEXICOMP. Enough said.

  • Funky update function

    I would recommend lexicomp to develop the app that allows users to update the content in the background without having interruptions to searching the drugs. Also, it would be nice to have the update on the content still happening in the background when users switch the screen to use a different app.

  • Garbage app

    App is absolute trash. The subscription/log-in process is convoluted. Passwords don’t function properly, and the reset only resets the password for the web store but not mobile access. I wish my institution didn’t use this service.

  • Keeps crashing

    App keeps crashing. It’s completely unusable now

  • Gets worse and not better

    It seems that over time the information gets more generic. Specifically in areas such as MOA. As pharmacists are a primary customer it would be good to have as much detailed information on the details as possible. New UI is not easy to navigate. Why did you make it use an extra keystroke to search? Previously one started typing and drug names popped up in a given database. Now you have to type and hit search then correct spelling then hit search again, rinse and repeat. Annoying. Beginning to think there are other options that are better although I’ve been using continuously for over 15 years now. 3 stars for content but would only give 1 star for UI.

  • Update is hard to use

    By Jane E M
    This new version of mobile Lexicomp is very hard to use now that I can no longer go straight to the section of the monograph that is needed. It’s really annoying to have to scroll all there at down to PK or the Preparation section because it’s farther down.

  • Back to 5 stars

    **revised** Developer published a fix to the update screen default. Everything is back up to speed and no more waiting for drug info if there is slow or no WiFi access. Thank you! The newest version of the app defaults to the update screen. I can’t tell you how much I HATE this. If there is a poor signal or no WiFi access in a building, it is not possible to navigate away from the update page until the device has failed to make a connection. How embarrassing when a physician stops me in the hallway or calls and I can’t look up the information of concern. It just makes an angry physician who isn’t interested in waiting while I stare at my unresponsive screen. If I could keep the drug data in my head for instant recall, I wouldn’t need Lexicomp in my lab coat pocket at all times. Please change this!
