WASHINGTON, March 25 (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Republicans launched an investigation into abortion pill manufacturers on Wednesday and called on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to crack down on online sales of the drug mifepristone, the latest escalation in a years‑long political battle over access to medication abortion.
The probe is led by Republican Bill Cassidy, chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.
It follows months of criticism by conservatives that the FDA has moved too slowly in reviewing the safety protocols surrounding mifepristone, particularly after former President Joe Biden's administration eased in‑person dispensing requirements and expanded telehealth access.
Here are some details:
Senators seek detailed compliance records from all three FDA‑approved manufacturers: Danco Laboratories, GenBioPro and Evita Solutions, including production sites, prescriber certifications, pharmacy audits, adverse event reports, sales data and reasons for any prescriber or pharmacy decertifications.
