Pros and cons of Top 200 Drugs Flashcards app for iPhone and iPad

Top 200 Drugs Flashcards app good for

Sometimes read a little to fast but well researched and usefull info thanks
great that you can add favourites, makes it easier to find the flashcards you are looking for!
i must say that this app helps me a lot, very very good, i would recommend it to anyone :)
I honestly rate this app 5 stars, it is truly the best... loads of content, and the app is just incredible, it has loads of functions but is still very easy to use!
EXTREMLEY GOOD APP. do not hesitate in buying! this app is simply the best. it should be the no.1 medical app! very professional
all 200 flashcards are packed with information, and if that wasnt enough, you can edit them and add more information! or you can even add a whole new card! incredible

Some bad moments

no drug strength and no dosing information. no common side effects listed. no drug interaction or contraindication information it does allow you to edit - which is great - but it doesnt always save the edited information which is very annoying.
This is a nice app. However, for me, for some reason it will not save my favorites or save changes made to cards. I only need the top 100 for now, so I need it to work properly. It may be b/c I have the new iPhone 4 (or OS 4). I just wanted people to be aware of this glitch.
I own a 3GS, so its not a memory issue when it keeps crashing. The reviews here are all by bots.. Read the reviewers names. There is no multitasking for this app, the favorite drugs never saves, any new drugs you add will be deleted and IT KEEPS CRASHING! Im a pharmacy student and I need a reliable app, not a phony $3 garbage app.
I have gone through only about 25 flashcards so far and have found many, many misspellings, misleading points and outright inaccuracies. Obviously unedited, even with spellcheck. For example, the drug class for acetaminophen+codeine shows "narcotic+non-narcotic pain reliever". Now, why wouldnt you list the classes in the same order as the drug name? Theres no reason, besides laziness. That example is easy to spot, but I found others that are not so obvious. I had a feeling about a few, looked them up and sure enough, they were backwards, too. This is not helpful, especially for people trying to learn this stuff. As far as flat-wrong entries go, this app lists zolpdems drug class as an anxiolytic, which is just not true. I found quite a lot of these problems in only 25 flashcards. I wonder how many more errors there are? I wonder how serious they are? For obvious reasons, pharmacology errors are unacceptable. The developers should act responsibly and clean this app up, or just trash it.
It is top 200 of all drugs, not just the community/retail top 200. And lots of errors. Who cares about the hospital top 200?
Although the idea behind this app is good, the execution is terrible. There are many errors in the spelling of drug names, and the information presented about each one is far too incomplete. This would be fine if I could use the flashcard editing feature, but whenever I close the app, all of my changes are reverted, and my work disappears. Very infuriating!
