From The Epoch Times:

In a letter dated Sept. 30, the FDA said it had approved Evita Solutions’ generic version of Danco Laboratories’ mifepristone.

“We have completed the review of this [new drug application] and have concluded that adequate information has been presented to demonstrate that the drug meets the requirements for approval under the FD&C Act,” the agency wrote. “We have determined your Mifepristone Tablets, 200 mg to be bioequivalent and therapeutically equivalent to the reference listed drug (RLD), Mifeprex (mifepristone) tablets, 200 mg, of Danco Laboratories, LLC.”

Evita Solutions announced on its website that the FDA had signed off on its low-cost version of the pill, which is approved for use “up to 70 days from the first day of the last menstrual period.”

Pro-life groups were quick to voice their displeasure. Students for Life Action President Kristan Hawkins called the approval a “true failure.” She asserted that “more babies will die” and “more women will be harmed” as a result of the FDA’s decision under President Trump.

Lawmakers were also quick to criticize the decision. Senator Josh Hawley called it “shocking.” He wrote on social media, “FDA has just approved ANOTHER chemical abortion drug, when the evidence shows chemical abortion drugs are dangerous and even deadly for the mother. And of course 100% lethal to the child.”

This is shocking. FDA has just approved ANOTHER chemical abortion drug, when the evidence shows chemical abortion drugs are dangerous and even deadly for the mother. And of course 100% lethal to the child.

An FDA spokesman addressed the criticism, clarifying that the agency “has very limited discretion in deciding whether to approve a generic drug.”

The Trump administration has faced pressure from pro-lifers to crack down on the dangerous and deadly abortion pill, especially in light of studies showing that the pill is more dangerous than previously thoughts, and that it has even tainted our nation’s water.

In June, FDA Administrator Dr. Marty Makary promised to review the safety of mifepristone. However, the fact that his agency has now approved a separate abortion pill is disheartening.

As medical abortions continue to destroy lives and harm mothers, let’s pray for the protection of the unborn and for an end to the abortion pill in America.
