..."Last January, the FDA changed its regulations to allow retail pharmacies to give out the drug - previously, only a handful of pharmacies and specialised clinics and doctors could dispense it. The change in the law could make it easier for millions of women to obtain an abortion, since such pills are currently the most common method.

The back and forth could affect access to the drug for millions of women across the US. Here are three states where the battle intensified this week."...
