Breaking: The FDA Approves OTC Plan B
By admin
It’s official: In response to a court-ordered mandate, the FDA has given drugstores the green light to start selling emergency contraception over the counter to women 15 and older. The upshot? You’ll now be able to get Plan B even if a pharmacy’s not open when you need it—like, say, at 2 AM, right when the accident happens.
For more information on what these changes mean, read Women’s Health’s original report on the judicial ruling to take emergency contraceptive out from being the pharmacy counter.
