Best Personal Medical File

One could look for other personal medical file programs for the Mac but will not find any that matches the features and thoroughness of this application; its that good.

One extremely important feature that should be a part of this application is the function of automatically determining drug interactions using the current medications information. A seperate application does exist, “Epocrates”, that I currently use but having to change current medications taken in both programs is awkward and often ‘out of sync”. A melding of both programs would make the resulting application an absolute required program expecially for us geriatrics.

I also would suggest the Current Medications file be divided into those prescriptions for temporary use (i.e., antibiotics, analgesics, etc.) and those prescribed for ongoing medical conditions (i.e., hypertension, hyperglycemia, etc.). Add to this new category (temporary prescriptions) a stop date when one would have exhausted taking the medication (app could auto calculated base on start date, dosage and number of refills).
