With the WebMD Mobile app, most of the information you can find on the trusted WebMD website is available with just a few taps on your iPhone screen, giving you answers to your most pressing questions in a snap. Whether you want to know if it’s OK to take ibuprofen with your antidepressant, or you’re not sure of the proper procedure for treating a mild sunburn, this app has you covered! With basic CPR instructions (complete with illustrations), this is a must-have app for acting appropriately in any medical emergency.

Before you assume that your child’s toy is safe, simply because it’s labeled “non-toxic” – think again. With all the inconsistencies in labeling, these days, it’s imperative to have a trusted source at your fingertips, giving you the truth behind labels. Label Lookup is the best thing to happen to consumer awareness, and it’s a project of the reputable Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). Covering food, personal care, cleaning supplies, paper, paint and wood, it’s easy to find just what you’re looking for based on the certifications of the EPA, USDA, and more. Let this app lead you to better buying choices, before you bring potentially dangerous items into your home!
