DrugView updated - demo video
SirataXero of the PreCentral forums has kindly jumped in to help with the development of DrugView, an online drug reference search tool for WebOS. You can follow the ongoings here in this thread.
If you are curious to see how this app works, here’s a video of it working in the emulator:
You’ll see that the application allows you to select from one of three online formularies - drugs.mobi, epocrates and mims usa. The search choice for “Advil” works for drugs.mobi but it is not listed in epocrates. But from drugs.mobi, one can determine the generic name “Ibuprofen” which is indeed listed in epocrates and also mims. The video demo’s how easy it is to switch from one formulary to another and this facilitates checking drug information from more than one source.
