AltMeds: The Physician's Guide to Alternative Medicine is a program for Palm OS computers that provides essential information about alternative medicines in an easy to use format, enabling health care providers to rapidly review side effects and potential drug interactions with alternative medicines.
In addition, there are multiple cross reference lists for rapid, narrower topic searches. Each entry contains references to relevant scientific data. With up to 80% of some populations using alternative medicines, knowledge of potential drug interactions and adverse effects is critical.
