Kennedy Jr., the U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary, has requested a safety review of mifepristone, an abortion pill approved by the FDA in 2000. flag The request follows a report claiming serious adverse events in 1 in 10 patients, though health experts argue these claims are misleading. flag More than 5 million people have used the drug since its approval. flag Meanwhile, attorneys general from four states have petitioned the FDA to lift restrictions on mifepristone, arguing they make it difficult to prescribe the drug in primary care settings, despite its safety record.
