Morning-After Pills Being Rationed by Most Major US Pharmacies, Such as CVS and Walgreens Following Roe v. Wade Reversal

Following the US Supreme Court’s decision to reverse Roe v. Wade last week, a new report claims that some major US pharmacies are restricting sales of morning-after contraceptive pills due to increased demand.

According to the Wall Street Journal, retailers like CVS and Walgreens are restricting purchases of their in-store products.

Taking the pills after unprotected sex prevents pregnancy by delaying ovulation or keeping eggs from attaching to the uterus.

According to a CVS representative, the restrictions were implemented to guarantee “equitable access” to contraceptives like Plan B pills, which are accessible over the counter without a prescription.

The morning-after prescription medications are still in plentiful supply, according to CVS. A doctor’s prescription is necessary to obtain these drugs, which are frequently used to end pregnancies up to 10 weeks.

Plan B pill listings on Amazon sometimes indicated low stock levels despite high demand.

There have been allegations of price increases on various online marketplaces due to inventories depleting.
