The six-month review uses existing drug-safety surveillance systems and satisfies a Louisiana court's October deadline. While the FDA currently maintains the decades-old drug is safe, anti-abortion advocates and Republican lawmakers are pressuring the agency to eliminate rules allowing the pill to be prescribed via telehealth and sent through the mail.

Medication abortion currently accounts for 65% of all US abortions. While medical groups emphasize that repeated studies prove the drug's safety, the administration aims for a robust review capable of withstanding future legal challenges.
