"Opill: The First Over-the-Counter Birth Control Pill Arrives in US Pharmacies"
TL;DR Summary
Opill, the first over-the-counter birth control pill, will be available for purchase later this month online and in pharmacies for $19.99 a month. Its approval by the FDA last July has been seen as a potential game-changer for access to birth control, eliminating the need for a doctor's prescription. However, the cost may impact accessibility, especially for those without insurance, and Opill has announced a cost-assistance program to help low-income, uninsured individuals obtain the pill at low or no cost.
