Epocrates RX Medical Information Now Available for BlackBerry

EpocratesrxI know a doctor or two who have been waiting patiently to get their medical fix from their BlackBerry. Until now many doctors have been forced to use Palm or Windows Mobile since they were the only platforms supported by most mobile medical applications. Epocrates now offers the Epocrates RX free drug and formulary reference guide for BlackBerry available. So far only the RX application is available for BlackBerry devices but you can probably expect more to follow soon

They even prove my point by quoting another doctor who used to carry around 2 devices:

“BlackBerry devices are issued to many physicians, managers and clinical pharmacists at MedStar Health. This provided a resource challenge since we also encourage Epocrates usage for all clinicians, causing several physicians to carry two devices, myself included,” said Dr. Peter Basch, MedStar medical director of ambulatory clinical systems. “I am delighted I can now have the drug reference on my BlackBerry, which will definitely lighten my load and help productivity.”

One Comment to “Epocrates RX Medical Information Now Available for BlackBerry

  1. [...] Ronen just spotted some cool new free medical software for BlackBerry called Epocrates Rx. Epocrates is a drug and formulary reference guide, allowing for quick dosing, side-effects, monitoring, pharmacology and pricing information across over 3,300 drugs. This is the first BlackBerry software Epocrates is offering, but they have a bunch of deluxe packages for Palm and Windows Mobile that can hopefully be ported over to BlackBerrys soon.
