Summary: The commenter argues that the petition is spurious and that the FDA's reported adverse event rates for mifepristone are significantly lower than independent estimates. They advocate for greater controls on the medication based on these safety concerns.
Petition to basically ignore FDA’s adverse event data through December 2024 reports 36 deaths associated with mifepristone, including ectopic pregnancy deaths. The Ethics and Public Policy Center (EPPC) report estimates an 11% serious adverse event rate, including ectopic pregnancies and hemorrhage, significantly higher than the FDA’s 0.5%. THIS petition is obviously spurious. GREATER controls are mandatory for mifepristone.
