FRC Urges FDA to Reject New Abortion Drug Falsely Labeled as an Emergency Contraceptive
Date:6/16/2010

bstetricians and Gynecologists (AAPLOG), 'Ulipristal acetate is an abortifacient of the same type as mifepristone (RU-486) and... its approval as an emergency contraceptive raises serious health and ethical issues. Furthermore, ulipristal's potential effects on women who used the drug off-label and upon ongoing pregnancies are essentially unexamined and untested.'

"Both ulipristal and mifepristone block the key early pregnancy hormone, progesterone, from functioning properly which effectively starves the embryo. That action potentially can interfere with or end an established pregnancy.

"Women deserve to know what the drug is doing in their body. Preventing human life from beginning is not the same as destroying a life that has already begun. And to many women it is a distinction that makes all the difference.

"We urge the FDA to take seriously its role to protect innocent human life and safeguard the health of American women by rejecting this abortion drug. We also urge a thorough review process to ensure that women's health is not jeopardized just to advance the agenda of the abortion industry."
