Sir,
Screwyou!
If there are some type of ill brain idiot, that does not know how to dispose of their own or perhaps someone else in their family or an older persons of their un-used and out-dated pills and medication,.. there is absolutely no hope for them. Those that suggest taking them to an government agency are just stupid, as the people who received them, what in the Sam-Heck are the receiver’s going to do with them, or how are they going to extinguish them, they ain’t going to flush, burn or bury they are not going to throw them in a lake or river, so they are going to vaporize your old pills huh?
medical terms/medications missing

During 'intake' where you are laying out your symptoms WebMD also (wisely) asks for background info. Two items requested are medications taken and medical conditions known. These entries are a joke because so many legitimate answers are not available to choose from. These are very ubiquitous medications (such as Synthroid generally for hypo-thyroidism) and well-known conditions (e.g. Multiple Sclerosis - not under MS either). Only 3/13 of my medications are on the list to choose from even though only one is too new to be in the most current edition of the PDR (Physicians' Desk Reference; a list of drugs and info about them); all WebMD has to do is purchase rights to use the PDF as the source of their drug list. As for medical conditions if you simply offer a write-in option then assign someone to edit them all adding the legitimate ones to the official list you would solve that problem too. As it stands this app is useless.
Recent update

Thanks to a recent update the app is no longer useable. You cannot enter accurate symptoms because the symptom list is decreased. Therefore an accurate look at what causes the current symptoms is impossible. Deleted the app.

It helped me

WebMD helped me to self diagnose my symptoms, then research it, finally ask my doctor when I was able to get an appointment...not easy these days :(. Some things I thought were serious, were explainable, so I didn't rush to emergency care.
