From WGAL:
A contentious three-year battle over the morning-after pill is at an end.
Federal health officials say women who prove they're at least 18 can now buy the Plan-B pill without a prescription.
The Food and Drug Administration has told Barr Pharmaceuticals that girls 17 and younger still need a doctor's note to buy the pills.
Isn't that cute? They're pretending to care about children.
The compromise is a partial victory for women's advocates and medical groups, who have argued that easier access to the morning-after contraception could cut in half some 3 million unplanned pregnancies every year in the United States.
The pills are a concentrated dose of the same drug found in many regular birth-control pills, but can lower the risk of pregnancy by nearly 90 percent if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex.
"Unprotected"? That can only mean outside of marriage-for-life.
The maker of the Plan-B pill said it's disappointed with the age restriction, and that it will keep trying to get the FDA to eliminate it. But it said it's pleased with the approval of the over-the-counter sales for women 18 and up.
