Quick Glance: Misoprostol: What Is It?
  • A Second Drug Can Be Used to Treat Medication Abortion.

  • A Texas federal judge's order invalidating the approval of the abortion pill mifepristone did not apply to misoprostol, the second drug used in the typical two-medication abortion regimen.

  • Medication abortion is used in the United States for patients who are less than 12 weeks pregnant.

  • According to studies, taking misoprostol alone may be less effective than taking it with mifepristone, which means that some patients may require additional medication or, in a subset of cases, a surgical evacuation procedure to complete the abortion.

Quick Glance: After the Roe v Wade decision, a judge temporarily blocked Louisiana's trigger abortion prohibition.
  • Louisiana was one of the 13 states to enact such legislation, but a judge in New Orleans has temporarily barred the state from executing it.

  • A temporary restraining order was obtained by Robin Giarrusso, an Orleans Parish civil district court judge, prohibiting the state from enacting any "trigger law."

  • However, the Louisiana attorney general, Jeff Landry, stated that the petitioners are "in for a tough fight."

  • The decision by the Supreme Court to reverse the 1973 Roe v Wade judgment was also described as "a cruel and irresponsible stripping of a woman's agency" by New Orleans district attorney Jason Williams.
