CVS and Walgreens, the two largest pharmacy chains in the country, announced on Friday that they will begin selling the abortion pill mifepristone this month.
Martin Maloney, a media representative for Walgreens, told CNA that the chain would begin distributing the pills within the next week in “select locations” in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, California, and Illinois.
Walgreens has announced its decision to distribute the pills following the completion of the FDA certification process. The pills will not be delivered via mail, according to spokesperson Maloney.
CVS, meanwhile, said it will begin selling abortion pills in the next few weeks, the Associated Press reported.
