User Reviews

Reviewers praise Epocrates as a long-standing, quick, and accurate drug information resource for dosing and interactions. However, recurring issues center on new paywalls: weekly free-view limits, high subscription costs, and intrusive ads that gate essential content. Many users report crashes and instability after updates, plus workflow disruptions from pop-ups. Together, these changes have driven many long-time users to seek alternatives, despite the app's continued value as a fast reference at point of care.
Pros
  • Concise, authoritative prescribing information and interactions (long-standing trust in drug info)
  • Quick, reliable drug dosing reference at point of care

Cons
  • Weekly free-view limits and paywalls restricting drug lookups

  • Ad-heavy free version with content gating that hinders basic use
  • App instability and crashes after updates, disrupting workflow
  • Pop-up prompts and upgrade nudges disrupt day-to-day clinical use

I have never before encountered an app with such frequent annoying advertisements pushed through notifications.

After using it for years (decades?) Epocrates had become useless. Now demands money for what were free functions. Previously, only wanted money to access premium features. No notice of this. Looking for another app.

Stopped using after 20 years. It’s not free anymore.
