The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Thursday permanently lifted a restriction on the abortion pill mifepristone.
Abortion rights groups cheered the move but said more needs to be done to ease access.
Mifepristone, which blocks the hormone progesterone needed to support a pregnancy, is given to women within the first 10 weeks. The pill is taken with another drug called misoprostol, which causes cramping and bleeding to empty the uterus.
