### "Best vet formulary on the market"

March 20, 2024

5.0

Amazing experience, I would not be the doctor I am today without Plumb’s. It truly is the most invaluable resource I can imagine to the veterinary community.

Pros

Easy mobile use, covers so many species with the inclusion of many special species, very comprehensive list of medications, many helpful tools, easy to view info.

Cons

The special species/exotics portion of the formulary is robust but not comprehensive enough, I still need Carpenter’s to reference for many of those species. I would like better info on dosage forms that can be compounded for common meds.

### "App Review for Basic Plumb's (not Pro)"

March 20, 2024

5.0

Overall, I like the app and will likely continue to get it. I would be less likely to continue if the price continues to increase.

Pros

The app is easy to use and allows for you do so many things such as a Favorites list of the drugs you most commonly use, ability to place/save personal notes (I use this when I've gone to CE and the speaker recommends different dosages, etc.), drug interaction checker (useful for when you have patients with multiple conditions).

Cons

The least favorite thing about the app is the price. It seems every year the app increases in cost. My job will not pay for this. If I didn't use the app frequently, I would not continue to get it. Within the app itself, I wish there was a dose calculator where I could plug the animal's weight (pounds/kg) in and get a dose or range.

### "Highly recommended!"

March 25, 2024

5.0

Pros

Excellent mobile app makes looking up drug information so convenient and fast. Search bar function is great—you can start typing name and medication pops up. I love the newer drug interaction checker—this alone has been worth the cost of subscription and makes it extremely easy to search for multiple drug interactions at a time.

Cons

The newer mobile app version has worked flawlessly for me so far, but previous version had some kinks where I couldn’t use search bar function. On rare occasion, I have looked up medication for which no information. While not cost prohibitive, it’d be nice if subscription cost was cheaper.

### "The most useful app in veterinary medicine"

June 27, 2024

5.0

very nice and user friendly, clear and quick information. Would love to have a FRENCH VERSION :)

Pros

quickly search dosage for cats and dogs with an icon that brings you right on the useful information, have almost all the drugs I need, very detailed, very user friendly. I love it!

Cons

mmm almost nothing but if I may find something to say, i would love some duration of therapy guidance, especially for baby vet . Say like a skin infection: amoxcillin-clavulanate 12,5mg/kg PO BID, would be nice to say 'most commonly used for 2-4 weeks' but I think some drugs do give that information just not enough for my liking

### "Amazing time saving app"

June 26, 2024

5.0

Pros

I like that it’s always being updated, medicine is ever changing so a textbook makes less and less sense when doses could have changed since it was published.

Cons

It seems like the “dosage forms” are for the US so being in Canada it is not always accurate.

Plumbs is great. I used it every day to look up dosages for medicines.

Pros

All the knowledge you need at your finger tips.

### "I can’t practice without Plumb’s"

June 26, 2024

5.0

Pros

I love the medication interaction checker. It’s so easy to check and see if there are medication interactions.

Cons

An internet connection is required, and there is one practice that has poor internet connection making it difficult to use my mobile app.

### "Highly recommended for all veterinarians "

March 21, 2024

5.0

I was a fan of the manuals but once I bought the online subscription, I was hooked. Having the ability to find the new medications and having handouts for all the medications available (not just the ones from the book we purchased 17 years ago) makes it even more useful.

Pros

I like the ease of use and the wealth of information at my fingertips. The dosing information by species makes it much easier and the option of adding bookmarked information is wonderful (so I know my preferred dose for a granuloma or other specific disease). I also like that it is continually updated and corrections can be made. I like having my preferred drugs easily at hand. I really appreciate being able to print or email drug information for/to clients and I can personalize the notes if necessary.

Cons

it's a bit pricey but I like not having to buy a new manual every few years to get the most recent medications and changes in dosing protocols. The new format I find a bit more complicated to navigate but the more I use it, the better I will get.

### "Great Services for a Clinician"

June 26, 2024

5.0

Very good. Love the services and accessibility. The mobile app is well designed

Pros

Plumbs is my number one database for anything you’d need to know as a prescriber. The drug highlights, dosages, adverse effects, etc. are all critical reference points for medications I use commonly and uncommonly.

Cons

I wish I had easier access to dosing forms. I prefer to use GoodRx to find available dosage forms.

I love Plumb's. It's my go to! Thank you!

Pros

Ease of use. Very easy to scroll through what I need rapidly.

Cons

Nothing. It is very comprehensive. I guess the only thing is that I can't log in to chrome with it and have to use explorer.

### "Plumb’s in my pocket every day"

April 15, 2024

5.0

Pros

I love the access through the app on my phone

Cons

Not exactly a “con” but I would love a pronunciation guide for the drug names. I think there are many that we can spell but may not pronounce correctly. I vaguely remember an app, maybe not Plumb’s, that included an audio file with the pronunciation

March 22, 2024

4.0

Pros

I primarily use the mobile app and love it. I like being able to search for different drugs. I like being able to jump from dosing information to formulation availability. I can favorite medications to find them easier in the future. I also appreciate that it tells you different doses for different disease types.

Cons

The price has gone up over the few years, but hasn't priced me out yet. I do wish the Plumbs Pro was more affordable for a single user.

### "Essential Practice Tool"

March 20, 2024

5.0

I only started using Plumb's 8 months ago and it has become an essential tool in my daily practice of veterinary medicine.

Pros

As a veterinarian with a busy schedule, having mobile access with the App is the number one best feature of this product. It is user-friendly and offers many extras such as drug handouts and an interaction checker.

Cons

Would like a few more options available on the calculator such as mg/m2

### "Best app ever!"

March 20, 2024

5.0

The Plumb’s app makes my life as a Relief Veterinarian so much easier. Being in the go and traveling to different clinics, this is one less thing I have to worry about if the clinic doesn’t have Plumb’s or a current edition.

Pros

I love that I have access to this formulary no matter where I’m at in the clinical setting and it’s always up to date.

Cons

Difficult when my phone signal is poor, but that’s not really an app issue. The recent updates have made it more user friendly.
