Mifepristone was approved by the FDA in 2000 for medical abortion during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy in combination with the drug misoprostol. Medical abortions account for more than half of all abortions in the United States.

Medical abortion has received increasing attention since the United States Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision last year. The decision allowed more than a dozen Republican-led states to adopt new abortion bans.

“The federal government has known for years that mifepristone is safe and effective,” Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson said Friday in a statement announcing the lawsuit. Following the Supreme Court’s radical ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, the FDA is now putting doctors, pharmacists, and patients at unnecessary risk. has no basis.”

The lawsuit says mifepristone is “safer than many other common FDA-regulated drugs, such as Viagra and Tylenol.”

An FDA spokeswoman declined to comment on the lawsuit.

Anti-abortion activists have taken Mifepristone to a federal judge in Texas, alleging that the FDA used an inadequate process to approve mifepristone and did not give due consideration to its safety for minors. I called for Fepristone to be taken out of the market nationwide.

Special FDA restrictions on mifepristone have been imposed under its safety program aimed at minimizing the risks of a potentially dangerous drug. The agency has eased these restrictions several times since they were first imposed, most recently in January when it allowed licensed retail pharmacies to dispense mifepristone.

After last year’s Supreme Court ruling, President Joe Biden directed federal agencies to expand access to medical abortion. After meeting with reproductive rights groups at the White House on Friday, Vice President Kamala Harris defended mifepristone, saying the attack was an attempt to attack America’s fundamental rights.
