'Morning-after' pill bill approved?
It's available by prescription from a doctor. The FDA has yet to decide whether to make the drug available, over the counter.
But, now New York State legislators have taken a step toward making the drug more widely available.
The plan, given final legislative approval by the state Senate, would make the drug available in drug stores when distributed by a pharmacist or other health care provider, such as a nurse.
The argument over wide availability of the drug has sparked the usual debate.

Its about bloody time, the UK has had this on the market since 2001 and its been available in the rest of Europe for a long time!
If it wasnt for our stagnant government held down by the conservative christians I think it would have been approved a long time ago.
I support the fact that its reserved for women over the age of 18 (I feel that as long as you are the responsibility of your parents then they need to be aware of what is going on with you and your body)
I am glad that the option is available to me - being that I am 27 if I happen to have a mis-hap I can take this pill instead of going thru the trauma of keeping an unwanted baby or getting an abortion.
3 cheers for a womans right to her own damn body!!!!
This pill is a Godsend.
