Garbage now with AI

I used to love MedScape but now with AI it’s impossible to find/read current in-depth articles. AI is a consolidation of years of data, much of which is irrelevant in some treatment fields. Just give me an option to use the “old” MedScape format without AI in my face please.

OBG calculator

After the recent update, obstetrics and gynaecology entire section calculator has disappeared from calculator section. It was convenient and reliable. Please add it back

Atualmente, o aplicativo Medscape não está disponível em outros idiomas além do inglês. No entanto, a funcionalidade de IA do Medscape está disponível em vários idiomas, oferecendo informações no idioma de preferência do usuário.

Garbage after AI update

As an ER doc, I used to rely on MedScape for quick access to medication information, especially in the setting of critical illness and overdose. Having fast access to the dosing for uncommon drugs was a real safety boon, and the concise pharmacology information has been critically important more times than I can count. HOWEVER, after this AI update (which follows from the clunky expanded clinical content), the app is borderline useless. Every time I open the app, it has to reload itself as I sit there waiting and staring at the logo only to then be dumped into the AI-centric landing page. This is no longer a reference app. Instead, the MedScape App has become another piece AI-"assisted" garbage that wants to have a conversation and summarize information THAT ALREADY EXISTS IN THE ADJACENT TAB instead of allowing me to simply search for the drug and find the information that I need NOW!

MedScape, you get one star for content and one star for what the App used to be, but you can't keep going in this direction. In an attempt to jump on to the AI bandwagon, your utility has been compromised. Kindly hang your head in shame.

More useless ai - a hard pill to swallow

Just what we needed. More useless ai in a medical context. Deleted the app because I don’t need it giving me false information about medication like every other awful gen ai chatbot out there.

User non friendliness

The new interface does not allow viewing of the topics that we click upon in the e mail. Instead ,a fixed rhetoric page appears that does not contain the article I have clicked to read. The older version was far more effective in reading about what I want to read

Poor function

Always issues with CME and education. The education programs don’t load most of the time. A lot of expired CME on there and it’s not stated clearly that it’s expired.

Crowded and slow

Previous versions were much cleaner and ad free. Now it's too crowded too complex and too slow because of ads and all the things going on. Please simplify the UI to make it more usable.

Non functional

Used to be my favorite medical app. Now won’t even open. Crashes immediately and closes every time I open it

Sad changes

Used this app for literally years! As additions rolled in some were useful to me others not as much. App was primarily used for pill identification and reading the happenings in the world of specialized medicine. Unfortunately with the removal of the pill identifier this app is now 85% useless to me and will be deleted. Such a shame as I used to recommend this app all the time.

The best!

I have been using this app for over a decade! Very convenient, very accurate, and the offline availability is a big plus!

App icon

“The Medscape app icon would look much cleaner and more professional if it used just the letter ‘M’ instead of the full ‘Medscape’ text. A simple ‘M’ logo feels more modern, minimal, and official

Couldn’t even register

I need a few more CEUs to renew my RN license. I decided to check out this app. Couldn’t even register. “app cannot be reached at this time” is the pop up I kept getting. Tried 3X. Your loss Medscape. Moving on.
