Fda: Morning-after pill to move over the counter

Fewer side effects and safer than daily bc pills. If taking "the pill" for contraception, it makes more sense to switch.

Its about time. This has been available by prescription for years. There's no reason for it NOT to be available on demand.

Note to rw's: its none of your business what method of birth control women choose.

Are "rw's" code for parents? Are you meaning it is not the business of parents what method of birth control their minor daughters chose. . . really??! :eek:

That explains why Obama had to be ordered to move it to OTC after all the science showed how safe it is, and why other, equally safe, forms of birth control are only available by prescription.
 
Wonder how many under 15's will be gettin' their older sisters to buy it for `em?...
:confused:
FDA Makes Contraceptive Pill Available to Girls 15 and Older
April 30, 2013 - U.S. officials have decided to make an emergency contraceptive pill available to women 15 years and older without a prescription.
The Food and Drug Administration ruled Tuesday that the Plan B One-Step be available to anyone who can show proof of age.

The FDA says studies show that women 15 and older are able to understand how Plan B works and how to use it properly.

But the Center for Reproductive Rights says it will continue fighting to make Plan B available to all girls of reproductive age.

Earlier this month, a New York judge overturned the Obama administration's ruling that girls younger than 17 get a prescription for Plan B. The judge called it "politically motivated" and "scientifically unjustified."

This is what Melissa Harris Perry from MSNBC was talking about when she said
that children don't belong to their parents.
