A doctor will always need his resources. And we are not just talking about books. They are practically prehistoric if you visit the modern doctor these days. Like most of us, they turn to their mobile phones or devices for reference, a great aid when it comes to reference for making their usual diagnoses and prescription to incoming patients.

To make it easier, WebMD makes it easier for physicians to access their database of information with the Medscape Mobile for the iPhone and the iPod Touch. This new app allows physicians to access pertinent information via mobile format and can be accessed on demand and as needed.

Among the features of the Medscape Mobile include:

• Drug database of over 6,000 generic and brand name drugs, plus hundreds of herbals, supplements and antidotes.
• Drug interaction checker that quickly shows interactions for a combination of up to 30 drugs, herbals and/or supplements.
• Medscape Medical News with up-to-date, specialty-focused medical content across more than 30 specialties.
• Continuing Medical Education from MedscapeCME in formats created specifically for the mobile device.
• The WebMD Health Directory featuring contact information for over 400,000 physicians, 57,000 pharmacies, and 6,000 hospitals in a convenient search format.
