User Reviews

Users praise Epocrates as an essential, easy-to-use drug reference with up-to-date information and student-friendly access. However, repeated issues with subscriptions and account management, plus frequent reliability problems and Android-specific glitches, undermine the experience. When functioning, it remains a trusted resource, but ongoing upgrade prompts, login requirements, and persistent crashes or download errors are common complaints that significantly affect usability on Android.

Pros

Essential go-to drug reference for medical students and clinicians.
Easy to use with quick, at-your-fingertips lookup of medications.
Up-to-date, comprehensive drug information with useful links when upgrading.
Medical students can access a free Epocrates+ subscription.

Cons

Persistent subscription/account issues (sign-up for a new membership, upgrade errors, and conflicting subscription status).
Frequent stability and performance problems (crashes, "Something went wrong" errors, endless updating, reinstall loops).
Android-specific reliability problems (not working well on Android; Epocrates Plus not working on Android; download/install issues on Android).
Forced account creation / sign-in requirement.
