Epocrates MedTools free applications have been developed to address specific needs. Rather than including them in our core application, we let you choose the tools that are most valuable to you.

These tools are derived from (but not limited to): organizational or association guidelines; accredited reference books, package inserts, licensing of existing applications, dosing calculators or current algorithms used in medical practice.

Once installed, Epocrates MedTools applications are conveniently located under the 'black bag' tab in your Epocrates application.
