Protects the prescribing, dispensing, and receipt of mifepristone or other medication abortion drugs from being treated as criminal diversion or misbranding under state law even if no longer FDA-approved or bearing current labeling, provided labeling was accurate at manufacture and use follows WHO,
The prescribing, dispensing, or receipt of brand name or generic mifepristone or any drug used for medication abortion shall not be considered a criminal diversion act for purposes of this definition solely because it is no longer approved by the federal food and drug administration or because it no longer bears the label currently in effect, provided that: (i) its labeling was true and accurate at the time of manufacture; and (ii) the drug is recommended for the purpose for which it was prescribed under World Health Organization guidelines that are current at the time of prescribing or
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends penal and education law to exclude mifepristone and other medication abortion drugs from state criminal diversion and misbranding prohibitions when they deviate from current FDA approval or labeling, if they meet specified conditions tied to original accuracy and WHO guidelines. This shields medication abortion access from certain state enforcement actions that would otherwise apply.
