In the April 2006 issue, in a piece by Barbara Kermode-Scott describing hand-held computers,1 it was incorrectly stated that Epocrates Rx does not contain Canadian brands. In fact, it does list Canadian trade names for those drugs that are also licensed for use in the United States. Very few drugs that I use are missing from this program, and its ease of use and drug interaction checker make this a favourite tool for me.
