The company that makes a widely used abortion drug asked the U.S. Supreme Court on April 14 to block a recent ruling that limits the drug’s availability, as did the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).
Danco Laboratories manufactures mifepristone, used by many women to terminate pregnancies. Under an appeals court ruling this week, the drug cannot be prescribed by mail. A separate ruling in a different court ordered no new limits on mifepristone in 17 states.
