Walgreens and CVS plan to sell abortion pill mifepristone in select U.S. states following FDA certification.
Walgreens and CVS, the two largest U.S. pharmacy chains, plan to start selling abortion pill mifepristone in several states this month, following FDA certification. The initiative will start with stores in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, California, and Illinois, and may expand to cover about half of U.S. states. Both companies will closely monitor states with unclear laws to protect their pharmacists and staff. The U.S. Supreme Court's decision on the future of mifepristone could impact its availability in the country.
