What is wrong with the alpha sort on the drug monographs? It no longer works for some drugs, the list is blank! This concern was brought up by another reviewer who was told to update the app to get a fix for this. How? The last reported update was in Dec. And this issue just started happening.
Reviews for Uptodate Lexidrug
← Back to Uptodate LexidrugI've been paying for this app for several years. I rely on it to get me information quickly. Lately it has been absolutely worthless. Clicking on a monograph category from the jump menu does not take you to the desired section, which means you just have to scroll to the section you want. I probably will not renew my subscription.
As of app version 7.5.3, the app asks for automatic update preferences every time the app is opened. Even after you answer WiFi or WiFi and Data. Even after you answer select content or download all. The app constantly asks the same question over and over. Does anyone at Lexicomp test out the app before releasing the update. Two different Samsung phones with the same result.
Ever since the updates have been switched from manual to auto, the app doesn't work. Updates never cease and work in the background and the process sucks up the phone battery. I still have 2 more months of paid subscription, but can't use the app! Have uninstalled the app due to this horrible update. Till the time updates were manually done, the app was fantastic and the best. Not anymore, sadly! Not renewing my subscription till this is fixed.
Was very great until this new design came out... when i get to the multinational drug list, it keeps loading for a while. In a middle of a round or emergency situation, this is frustrating. My device is galaxy a70 and the latency is only in that list. Before the new version, it was superfast. We dont care the fancy look, yet we care to take our decisions as fast as possible.
I've been using and paying for this app since it was Lexicomp installed on my Palm Pilot. It used to be great. Searches were faster, I could jump to a specific category (like mech. of action) easily, could change the priority of information categories, and could eliminate databases I didn't need (even though I usually paid for the complete suite). I am not going to renew. It's too slow, too hard to navigate to what I need, and I can't eliminate non-U.S. drugs. I'm very dissatisfied for the $$$.
This app was designed by robotic imbeciles with ZERO human sense! After my subscription had expired, I could not find any way to renew it from within the app. Instead, it tells me to go to the Lexicomp website to do so. But the website provides no easy, immediate, straightforward, and common sensical way to retrieve forgotten logins and passwords. Shouldn't renewing a subscription be the most basic and most obvious element to include in the app itself? I'm done with your nonsense! Dumbasses!
I used to love this program especially for the 5 min clinic. Now I can barely type in the search bar without the program freezing. The programmers really fudged up a great program. I feel ripped off... UPDATE 1/6/2022: They fixed the issues mentioned. Yet, when I resubscribed for this yr I found they removed some of those useful features & placed it in their expensive "Premium package." I think we should be able to purchase some of those options...
unfortunately not free my subscribe with payment fees for subscription $29.99 that's quite a bit could it really be worth it? yeah the answer is hell no
Drug interaction checking currently does not work. The download now button does not work and I am just stuck on the screen saying I need to update. Please bring back the drug library!
keeps losing ability to check drug interactions. I have to uninstall app and then download it again to get this to work.
Uuuuuugh! Why did they mess with it!? Before the last update (just a few days ago) it was a user-friendly layout and easily accessible....now it seems archaic in comparison. Way more cumbersome to use. In addition, keeps telling me all my subscriptions are expired every time I log in, yet on the next page saying it's all in date. Slow to load, too. This is EXTREMELY frustrating, especially since I pay a LOT for this product and rely on it every day for quick, accurate, up to date info.
since the last update I can't use the interactions feature or download updated information. makes it useless to me. 2 stars because it USED to be great.
trissel's subscription not downloaded anymore. clicked to download again and it refreshes the screen and greys out the button. my subscription for that database in LexiComp's app is effective until Jan 1, 2026 and it won't update.
No longer allows me to utilize drug interactions - the "Download Now" button is just perpetually there and the app just reloads the same page when you hit the butto. Major loss of functionality for over 2 weeks now.
after last update, I have a problem about update IV compatability. I lost database and con not download content. I have to reinstall app to download this content. After a few day, i lost this data again and can not download it. (only problem with IV compat data), (7 aug 2025) 6 month later, the problem still exists
Paid for a subscription, but I constantly have to re-download the databases. The IV compatibility database no longer downloads.
everything updates but tressels I compatibility says to download. I try and it refuses every time. I do make sure the app is up to date each time I have issues
Latest update has made search function very slow. Update 5/2025. Each major "upgrade" seems to make search function worse. It seems a company this large should be able to develop a reasonably functional android app. Pathetically slow, despite having database downloaded on device. I have uninstalled and reinstalled.
I've been using Lexi-Comp since 2008. It WAS a wonderful app. Now, I continuously have problems!! The interactions database is a joke. Half the time when I try to use it, it tells me to download data. Guess what? I've already downloaded, redownloaded, and downloaded some more. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app dozens of times. It'll work for a few weeks, then stop again. It's extremely frustrating to spend hundreds of dollars on something and have it fail when it matters most.
