It’s good, but it used to be great and I expect it to be mediocre within the next few years ### 4/5 — Off-line database *2026-07-12, version 9.5.1* Version identification of each database is critical to ensure prior connection and updates have occurred. Presently the information appears to be stale. While the internet is convenient, access is not always available. ### 3/5 — Good, but… *2026-07-09, version 9.5.1* I like LexiDrug, but it needs to bring back notes that I can add to meds. ### 3/5 — Ruim *2026-05-25* Problemas para acesso.

I was going to delete the review, but maybe it will be helpful to other users as well as to the developers. Will bump the rating back for 1 star to 5 stars. ===================================> ORIGINAL REVIEW: I finally updated the app today and it is now frozen, I can’t click or type anything in it (and yes, I have tried closing and reopening as well as rebooting my phone; will try deleting snd reloading next). I see some other recent reviews with the same complaint, and the developer’s canned autobot-type responses that suggest trying offline mode (even though connectivity isn't the issue). Even if connectivity was an issue, the app is FROZEN, so we are unable to click on anything, which means we can’t even attempt to put it in an offline mode. Also, I keep the whole database downloaded on my phone, so I have always been able to work without a connection (let’s see if this review gets the same canned response as others to try offline mode; hopefully not). Before the last update, this app has always been great, so, hopefully someone within the developers team will see this and have a fix coming shortly (or at the very least, put out an update that reverts back to the prior version), because I have relied on this app for years, but as of today, it is currently unusable for me. ### 5/5 — Best app *2026-03-23, version 9.4.0* Thank you ### 5/5 — Lexi-comp rocks *2026-02-26, version 9.4.0* I use this data base all the time and the info I need is always there. Really easy to navigate. I would hold on to this app before any others I have ### 3/5 — Failed to connect to database *2026-02-25, version 9.4.0* Failed to connect to database even with stable connection ### 4/5 — Great reference but really sluggish *2026-02-20, version 9.3.0* My favorite app for pediatric and neonatal dosing, but SO frustrating with how sluggish it has become. Can easily take 7-10 seconds to respond to screen taps. Please fix this! ### 5/5 — Love Lexidrug *2026-01-27, version 9.3.0* This is the best app for pharmacy and nursing. I couldn’t do my job without it. Best functionality and editorial team. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 1 star because I’m asked to write a review every time I enter the app. *2026-07-21, version 9.5.1* 1 star because I’m asked to write a review every time I enter the app. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t sync *2026-07-21, version 9.5.1* You pay for the subscription and the app doesn’t sync. Very expensive subscription for something that has such poor user design. ### 1/5 — No more pop ups *2026-06-17, version 9.5.1* Stop giving me the pop up to review!! ### 1/5 — Stop asking me to review app *2026-06-16, version 9.5.1* Please stop having me review this app every time I open it. Please stop!! ### 1/5 — New platform *2026-04-15, version 9.4.0* Difficult accessing haven’t been able to get on my PC as of yet ### 1/5 — Difficulty to login *2026-03-01, version 9.4.0* Very difficult to use ### 1/5 — New update not working *2026-02-17, version 9.3.0* Would have been 5 stars until the last update. Now it is just frozen. What am I missing? ### 1/5 — Crashing every time *2026-02-12, version 9.3.0* It’s crashing/closing every time I use it now ### 1/5 — Renewing subscription *2025-12-16, version 9.3.0* Sucks. Soooo complicated. App actually does not have a clear renewal. ### 1/5 — Can’t click anything *2025-12-15, version 9.3.0* It used to be an amazing app that was very easy to access for quick references or on rotations. Ever since the update I can’t click on anything or even search up any drug. The app has become useless to me on my phone and I can only use it on my laptop. I hope that there is a solution before my next rotations because I know it was extremely helpful during my first rotations. Wonderful app before, but this newest update has been detrimental to me personally. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So helpful *2026-08-19, version 9.5.3* Love this app!
