Am I taking or giving the right drug? How often do we wonder whether there might be a more effective and suitable solution for the problem in front of us?

Here is a possible answer to that question, to keep in your lab coat pocket or on your nightstand.

This app contains an essential and unique guide to drugs in clinical use. Physicians, pharmacists, healthcare professionals, students, medical science enthusiasts and patients who want to be informed can now have, wherever they are, a complete and accurate tool for choosing, managing and understanding the active ingredients and molecules of the best available drugs, in light of the most rigorous experimental evidence and based on the official guidelines of the leading international medical associations.

The content of the app is taken from the book «Manuale di Farmacologia Clinica. Tutti i farmaci secondo l'evidenza scientifica» (Manual of Clinical Pharmacology. All drugs according to scientific evidence): a work of over 3,000 pages, edited by Professor Gianluca Airoldi and published by CG Edizioni Medico Scientifiche of Turin, a publisher with over 50 years of experience in medical information and publishing.

The iPhone and iPad app, developed by goWare, lets you find the content of the manual in an instant thanks to its indexing and search features, a task that would otherwise be complex and time-consuming without a search engine.

The app is organized into monographs dedicated to individual molecules or classes of molecules of interest for medical therapy, each systematically covering many aspects, including:

- readily available commercial products;
- general dosage;
- precautions for use;
- absolute contraindications;
- adverse effects, with average percentage frequency of occurrence;
- mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, reconstitution, dilution, etc.;
- interactions with other drugs;
- use during pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- indications for each disease.

A true "summa" of modern pharmacology, compiled according to the most up-to-date classification and treatment criteria.

Please note: the app content is in Italian.
