They have. It's called RU486. Which is about the worst name ever, super tasteless.

Quote:
Once pregnancy is confirmed a woman returns to her physician's office for 2 doses of medication. First, she is given one dose of mifepristone, a synthetic steroid, which causes a fertilized egg to be unable to remain attached to the lining of the uterus. The second pill misoprostol, which causes uterine contractions, is taken 2 days later and terminates pregnancy anywhere from 6 hours to one week later. Both pills are taken in the physician's office.

Later a woman must return to her physician for confirmation that the pregnancy was terminated. If the pregnancy is still present a surgical abortion must be performed.
