MSD Manual Professional 3.2

SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT DOWNLOAD

Please read before downloading: This is a native app that stores medical topics and associated images, figures, and on-demand downloaded videos on the device's internal storage. Therefore, by default, the Android OS (version 6.0 and above) prompts permission to "Allow App to access photos, media, and files on your device?" before installation.

Downloading this app requires a 2-step process: the first step is a download of the app template, and the second step is a full download of app content. This process may take 5 to 10 minutes on WiFi for 64-bit devices, while 32-bit devices may take longer. Please do not navigate away from the app until both steps have been completed.
