Abortion Pill Gets Fresh Look As FDA Launches Review Of Restrictions

The FDA is reviewing restrictions on the abortion pill, which is currently harder to access than opioids. Despite being deemed safer than penicillin and Viagra, the pill is only available through certified professionals, causing access issues. The ACLU sued the FDA to lift these restrictions, citing the need for the medication in early abortion and miscarriage care. Recently, some restrictions were lifted during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing mail access. The FDA's review is ongoing, with a legal case set to continue in December.
