Epocrates MultiCheck
The left screenshot is
the home page of
MultiCheck and from here all
drugs can be looked up and selected
as needed (See right).
In the example shown here
a patient on Lasix, spironolactone, and
captopril is checked for possible
interactions.
The results yielded two possible
interactions one between
Lasix and captopril
with increased risk of
hypotension and the
other between
spironolactone and captopril
with increased risk of
hyperkalemia.

  • Just another service from Epocrates that allows generating interactions
    analysis between all of the drugs listed in their Rx or Rx Pro.
  • The application comes in combo with Rx (free service) and no                       
    need for the subscription based (Rx Pro).
  • It has to be mentioned that in Epocrates Rx and Rx Pro                     
    themselves there are monographs explaining possible drug                             
    to drug interaction of each individual drug looked up there.
  • Not only drug to drug interactions can be checked but even IV compatibilities
    (Rx Pro Only), a feature not available in other interactions generators.
  • Each check list can be up to 30 drugs which is obviously enough in the case
    of the pediatric patient.
