Quick Glance: FDA Panel Recommends First Nonprescription Birth Control Pill
  • A U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expert panel unanimously voted to make an oral contraceptive pill available over-the-counter.

  • If the FDA adopts the panel’s recommendation, the birth control pill will become the first oral contraceptive women can take without medical supervision.

  • The committee’s decision was heavily influenced by the need for an accessible form of nonprescription contraception that’s more effective than currently available methods like condoms.

  • The committee concluded that the potential benefits of over-the-counter birth control pills, including increased access to birth control and fewer unintended pregnancies, outweighed the potential risks of inappropriate use.
