..."Jim’s Pharmacy in Port Angeles just became the first in Washington state to announce publicly that it has fulfilled the requirements and can dispense the drug.
Big chains like Walgreens and CVS are still in the process of becoming certified.
Many people receive the pills for a medication abortion in the mail. But some people can’t wait for a shipment — either for medical reasons, because they don’t have a reliable address, or because they live with an abusive partner.
A full list of pharmacies approved to distribute mifepristone can be found here.
These pharmacy rules are just part of the ongoing legal and political fight about medication abortions. A case that seeks to overturn Mifepristone’s FDA approval entirely has been appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court."
