Abstract
In January 2023, the Food & Drug Administration modified the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy program regulating mifepristone to allow direct dispensation from retail pharmacies. In June 2023, we conducted a random, distributive survey of pharmacies in California using secret shopper methodology to investigate the feasibility of accessing mifepristone. One pharmacy had mifepristone immediately available (<24 hours), and misoprostol availability was limited. Accessibility to misoprostol varied by type of pharmacy (p < 0.01), but not by region. Even in a reproductive freedom state, access to mifepristone and misoprostol from outpatient retail pharmacies remains limited.
