Micromedex Drug Information

NOTE: This app will be retired from the Windows Store effective June 18 2014.

In its place, there are now two new apps to choose from—both available June 18, 2014. Each app has the same functionality and provides the same evidence-based clinical decision support content you've come to rely on from Micromedex®. Select the one that's right for you:
If you or the organization you work for has an Internet-based subscription to Micromedex, please search in the Windows Store free version of this app, called Free Micromedex Drug Reference for Internet Subscribers, which is included with your subscription at no charge.

If you do not have an Internet-based subscription to Micromedex, please search in the Windows Store for Micromedex Drug Reference Essentials, which is available for just $2.99 per year. It is a great low-cost option for those who want access to trusted Micromedex drug information content, but who don't have access to an Internet subscription to Micromedex 2.0.
