Walgreens, the nation’s second largest pharmacy, has adopted a policy that allows pharmacists to use personal discretion to deny medication to people who they suspect could be circumventing new abortion laws.

After the overturning of Roe,"we started getting emails, tweets, calls from patients saying, number one, 'I'm hearing about this, is this going to happen to me? I'm really, really concerned,'" said Zoe Rothblatt, associate director of community outreach for Global Healthy Living Foundation.

She said she has been prescribed medications that can impact pregnancy in the past, which is why she was shocked to be denied a drug that could help her, and tearfully took to TikTok to share her experience in September. She said a pharmacist told her,"We're now required to make sure that your doctor is prescribing you this medication for what it says it's prescribed for and not for having an abortion."Noblin was furious. She's not planning to have more kids, she said, but that's none of the pharmacist's business.

"In certain cases, pharmacists may face criminal charges for dispensing medications for this purpose," DeAngelisRule, the woman with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, said she went to see a new neurologist specifically because she started having cluster headaches again after about five years and wanted to know if there were any new treatments available.
