Summary: A physician who has delivered over a thousand babies supports the petition's goal of restricting the medication to prescription-only status. They argue that the medication should only be prescribed by physicians with specific hospital privileges to manage potential complications.
I am a physician who has delivered over a thousand babies. Although physicians have various views on the ethics of this medication, there should be no debate that this medication is exactly that. A medication. It must be a prescription only. Furthermore, the prescriber must be a physician with privileges in a facility where the common complications and risks of this medication can be addressed. An OB or FP who has hospital privileges to do D and C's.
