Epocrates®, Inc., developer of mobile applications used by more than 500,000 healthcare professionals, is excited to announce that it has begun development of its clinical software products for the iPhone operating system. Epocrates was one of only five companies, including Salesforce.com, AOL, EA and Sega, to be highlighted by Steve Jobs during the iPhone Software Roadmap media briefing.
“By putting so much computing power into such an elegant mobile device, Apple has opened up tremendous opportunities for application developers”, said Kirk Loevner, Chairman and CEO of Epocrates, Inc. “The technology and software in the iPhone OS will allow us to create new and innovative applications that help improve patient safety and provide healthcare professionals with an unsurpassed user experience.”
How Epocrates is Working with Apple® to Develop Clinical Software for iPhone
Epocrates is one of a few companies who have been working directly with Apple to create an application that can be stored directly on the device. This will enable healthcare professionals to always have immediate access to vital clinical information wherever and whenever they need it, regardless of Internet connectivity. When a connection is established, the device will be automatically populated with updated drug and safety information and important medical news.
Epocrates Rx is finally available for free at http://www.epocrates.com/products/rx/iphone.html! Go forth and download.
The wait is over! We are excited to announce that Epocrates Rx software for iPhone is now available for download! Epocrates Rx allows for instant access to drug Information, pill ID, drug Interactions and reference formulary Information – all without the need for Internet connectivity!

My friend on Orkut shared this link with me and I’m not dissapointed that I came here.
I seemed to be just searching for this info for a while. After six hours of continuous Googleing, finally I acquired it on your own site. I wonder what is a defieicency of Google strategy that do not rank this kind of informative web sites in the top of the list. Usually the absolute best sites are packed with garbage.
these really were wonderful
