Federal court restricts access to abortion pill Mifepristone, drug remains available
Fox News
A federal court on Wednesday afternoon ruled to keep abortion pill Mifepristone available, but placed several restrictions on the drug.
The ruling ends the availability of Mifepristone by mail, requires that it is administered in a physician's presence, and also states that the drug can be used through the seventh week of pregnancy, versus the previous 10 weeks.

While the court ruled in favor of the restrictions, they won't take immediate effect as the Supreme Court previously issued an injunction, allowing access to the drug until the case is fully litigated.
