With pharmacies in some states preparing to dispense abortion pills, Floridas Agency for Healthcare Administration sent a letter Thursday to all state healthcare providers warning them that do so in Florida is illegal.
The Agency issues this alert to remind providers that they must continue to comply with Florida laws that govern the performance of abortions, the Florida agency said via an email.
The warning follows the U.S. Food and Drug Administrations early January decision allowing retail pharmacies to stock and dispense abortion pills in states that allow the procedure.
Pharmacy chains including Walgreens and CVS both said they plan to get certified to dispense the abortion pill mifepristone in states where allowed. Mifepristone can be used to end an intrauterine pregnancy through 10 weeks gestation. It recently became the most common method of terminating a pregnancy in the United States.
