I've never had issues accessing it and have never experienced it being buggy Pros Accessibility (available on my phone anywhere but also integrated with instinct at work), the client handouts and information from disease process through treatment and recommended monitoring Cons Doesn't always have duration of treatment for each condition (could be integrated from research/vin) Review Source LS Lindsye S. veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "So useful. " July 11, 2024 5.0 So useful and easy to use. I use it daily and have not had any problems. Pros I love this platform for daily use including medication dosages and information, checking for drug interactions, algorithms, client handouts, and full disease information. Cons Would love handouts added on even more topics. Review Source JJ Jillian J. Associate Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Daily User" March 20, 2024 3.0 Pros Fast searching, easy skip to dosage or drug interactions. Cons Unable to customize level of detail per pricepoint. I don't use the client handouts or differential mode. I would prefer to pay less for exclusive use of the drug search and dosage calculations. Review Source AM Andrea M. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Plumbs is a must, for as long as I can afford it." June 26, 2024 4.0 Generally positive experience with Plumb's. Pros I like the quick versatility of having Plumbs in my pocket. Cons I dislike that the costs continue to increase yearly, but the features don't seem to be updates as frequently. Review Source RK Rachael K. Associate Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Will never buy books again!" June 26, 2024 5.0 Great way to always have latest drug information, with access to published research articles as references Pros Convenient access to latest drug information… the newest version even has buttons to navigated quickly to doses and dose forms which saves me a TON of time! Cons Wish my practice would reimburse me for the annual cost, or invest in a team membership for everyone to use Review Source SB Sloan B. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Veterinarian in busy clinic" June 26, 2024 5.0 Imperative to the way I practice. I will always double check a dose and check interactions for peace of mind Pros As a new grad, this product has been incredible to bring me confidence in my drug choices as well as dosing. I can also look up interactions with ease. Cons Overall this is a wonderful product. My first year in practice I used the flow charts to further help develop my skills. After one year out, I could not justify the cost of that, but the basic formulary is well worth the cost. Review Source SP Swaneth P. Practice owner Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review of Plumb's app" July 1, 2024 5.0 I'm having to rely more on paper copies when I'm working remotely. Losing value in the app Pros Ease of use, the searching bar, complete and organized info Cons Will not work in areas with no internet or in airplane mode. If I'm doing a house call in a remote location, is inaccessible Review Source RL Rachel L. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Plumbs Veterinary Drugs" June 26, 2024 5.0 Pros I love the ease of access and simplicity of finding exactly what information I need. I especially love the interaction checker to make sure if that certain medications do not interact with each other and are safe to give at the same time. Cons I wish it was easier to put personalized notes in about certain drugs. Review Source VD Valérie D. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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 Review Source RM Rebecca M. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source BH Brigette H. DVM and owner Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Plumbs review" June 26, 2024 5.0 Pros It is very easy to access with the app. I love how I can get reliable info quickly. Cons Having to sign in repeatedly on different devices and price increases. Review Source JJ Jessica J. Associate Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "My most used tool as a new grad " May 23, 2024 5.0 Pros I use plumbs multiple times a day. The app makes it so easier for me to stand in pharmacy and quickly calculate my doses. The calculator function in the app works well. I can pull it up and still scroll up and down on the drug monograph. I used to have to flip in and out of the app until I realized the calculator was right there. Such a time saver Cons The cost of plumb’s pro is very much out of my budget and I’m unsure how often I would reach for some of the extra features. Review Source CC Christine C. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source LC LORI C. owner veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Review Source KF Kassandra F. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Must have!" March 20, 2024 5.0 I have never had a bad experience with Plumb’s. I started using it while in veterinary school for free and continued paying for it when I started practicing. I haven’t stopped using it! Pros I like the ease of use and how quickly I can find what I’m looking for. I utilize the app daily to search for dosages, drug interactions, and side effects. I also like to send the client handouts home when sending a new drug home with a patient. Cons I use the app daily, and have no complaints. It truly is so easy and helpful. Review Source MC Mariel C. Associate veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best app for Vets yet" March 19, 2024 5.0 Pros I like the accessibility of the info I need straight on my phone. I can email pet parents' resources and give them information about their pets disease, treatment and prognosis from the palm of my hand without leaving the exam room. Any questions they have regarding their pets medication or drug interactions, I can answer right away. I also like the algorithm, which allows me to narrow down my differentials and what testing can be run to get answers faster than before. In addition I can look up a disease that I already know how to treat for new and improved treatments that I had not thought of before. Cons I would like to have an option to chat to other vets about their experience using certain drugs and treating different disease, almost like a consultation that’s included. Similar to what idexx does. Review Source MA Marissa A. Veterinary pharmacist Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Plumb's Review" March 20, 2024 5.0 Love, love this product and recommend to everyone. Pros I can't imagine my daily life without it. I use every aspect of it and am so appreciative of this product. Truly a life-saver for me! I especially love the references. Cons I don't know that it really has a con. 10/10 can't recommend enough. Review Source LJ Leanne J. Dvm Veterinary Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Plumbs app" March 21, 2024 5.0 LOVE IT. It’s easy to use and can find what I need in a moments notice Pros I couldn’t practice without it. I love the adverse effects and also that i can easily access which drugs can be used together Cons Nothing It’s the best app ever I can’t practice without it Review Source MV Melissa V. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Used since vet school, never going back!" March 19, 2024 5.0 Pros Love the consistently updated database and flexibility to access it anywhere. Cons Interested in their "pro" offerings, but it is just too expensive to justify with other membership costs. Review Source SL Stephanie L. Medical director Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best pharmacy app" March 20, 2024 5.0 We love the app but it is too costly to bring onboard for the hospital to use completely. Pros The apps i easy to use and comprehensive Cons the cost is really high and i cannot justify it when there are other options Review Source JV Jana V. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Indispensable " March 20, 2024 5.0 Pros Plumb's allows me to keep accurate, up to date formulary information in my pocket. It's quick and intuitive to use. Cons Occasionally I wish there were more posts that included less common species. Review Source SW Sergey W. DVM Veterinary Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good to have Plumbs om my team" March 20, 2024 5.0 Pros Fast and convinient acses to drugs for my patients Cons The cost of having it on my mabile phone Review Source KD Korin D. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Well It was good while it was affordable" March 29, 2024 4.0 It's just expensive for something that is not being updated that often. Pros I enjoyed that it was initially suppose to be keeping me up to date on drug information. Cons I've paid for 3 + years, the membership expires and poof. I'm realizing I have nothing for my money I invested in them. If I would have just bough the book I would have been maybe missing 4-5 monographs butstill had a book to refer to. Review Source AQ Adriana Q. Veterinary Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent " March 20, 2024 5.0 Is been excellent make my days more easy Pros It helps me with the dose and use of medications and helps me educate clients about the prescribed medication. Cons I like everything about Plumb’s.…………………. Review Source AS Allison S. Veterinarian Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Plumbs is great on the go" March 20, 2024 5.0 Pros I love the app so I can look up dosages/uses for specific drugs while I’m on the go in between rooms. Cons It’s a little pricey, but well worth the money.
