Bush to Allow Sale of Morning-After Pill to Underage Girls
WASHINGTON - Two Food and Drug Administration advisory committees Tuesday voted overwhelmingly to allow the sale without prescription of an emergency contraceptive commonly known as a morning-after pill. The advisory panels' 23-4 vote is not binding, but puts pressure on the FDA to back the proposal, which it will take up in February. There's no date for final FDA action. The country's largest gynecologists' group, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, estimates that the move could cut in half the 3 million unwanted pregnancies in the United States each year. Dr. W. David Hager, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, said he opposed over-the counter sale on grounds that the pill would be "sold with no age restrictions and potentially available to pre-teens and children."
