The Ongoing Battle Over Abortion: Latest Developments and Implications
TL;DR Summary
Even if the US FDA's approval of mifepristone is suspended, misoprostol alone can still be used for medication abortion. Misoprostol is considered safe and effective and has been used for decades. California is stockpiling misoprostol in anticipation of the ruling. The two-drug approach is preferable, but misoprostol-only regimens are an acceptable alternative if mifepristone is unavailable. Medication abortion now accounts for more than half of all US abortions.
