We were unable to transfer the comments for this particular post from our old website. There were two key comments made. One of our readers asked the difference between the Home edition and the Professional edition of the Merck Manual.

The developer responded with the following in our original comments section:

“@aizatamlikha I’m one of the developers of the Merck Manual applications.

Both apps include the full text of their respective book – the difference is mainly the audiences that this content is tailored to. I hope that this helps!”
