Louisiana Court Restricts Abortion Pill Distribution
The U.S. The 5th U.S. This follows the 2022 Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. The ruling requires women to obtain the pill in person at health centers. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans has blocked the distribution of mifepristone via mail. The decision rolls back Biden-era rules that allowed the pill to be prescribed online or over the phone and then mailed. Doctors argue an in-person prescription is medically unnecessary and that the policy is a way for abortion opponents to make it harder to access the procedure. The ruling specifically restricts telemedicine access to the pill Mipha Pristo, rolling back Biden-era rules that allowed for online or phone prescriptions followed by mail delivery. A panel delivered a ruling in a lawsuit brought by the State of Louisiana regarding access to Mifepristone.
