Mifepristone's life-saving powers can go beyond pregnant people—if the courts allow research and access to continue.
Banning mifepristone goes beyond stalling research—it puts any FDA-approved treatment at risk of being recalled. “You have a medication with an excellent track record of safety, efficacy, and high patient satisfaction,” says, an OB-GYN at Emory Healthcare in Georgia. “The idea that the entire process for approving medication can be overturned [in court] is earth-shattering.
If the courts decide to bar or limit mifepristone use down the line, it would discourage pharmaceutical companies from spending money on producing new drugs that appear controversial. That could include contraceptives, hormone blockers, or treatments completely unrelated to reproductive issues.
Despite the setbacks on mifepristone access and potential legal battles, Klimas is optimistic that the research she is doing will help give veterans their long and overdue treatment. Her team is hoping to start their phase 2 trial soon and get as many results before politics interferes in science again.
