Supreme Court preserves abortion pill access after tossing challenge
Briefly

The Supreme Court dismissed the abortion case, stating doctors opposing abortion pills lacked legal standing. The decision maintains mifepristone access without evaluating the case's validity.
Medication abortion thrives in the US, constituting 63% of all abortions. Mifepristone and misoprostol are FDA-approved with ample safety records, now obtainable online and through pharmacies.
Federal arguments highlighted the doctors' lack of direct injury from FDA regulations, contrasting with the doctors' claim of experiencing harm in treating patients after taking mifepristone.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals criticized FDA for safety oversights in mifepristone's usage expansion. Walgreens and CVS recently announced plans for selling abortion pills in legal states.
