The United States Supreme Court is scheduled to issue a decision that could impact access to mifepristone, an abortion pill used in more than half of all abortion procedures in the US.Mifepristone was approved in 2000 by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the government agency responsible for determining the safety of drugs and medication. But earlier this month, a conservative judge in the US state of Texas issued a ruling barring the sale of mifepristone beginning on April 7.That decision was quickly appealed by the Biden administration and has now made its way to the Supreme Court, which is expected to issue a ruling before a self-imposed deadline of midnight on Friday.
