I have the software on an annual paid basis. I have the full medication program with alternative meds, lab program, tables, treatments for common medical condition and formulas of all kinds. It is totally worth the $ each year to have a med handbook and lab handbook in my pocket.

Thanks! I got to take a look at the website, and it looks like what I need. Appreciate the info!

Craig,

Any particular good software you recommend at PDA cortex?

There was something wrong with http://www.mobilemerckmedicus.com when I tried to open it.
