As the article states, this is a rare occurence with RU-486 and it's not even yet known whether there were complications in this case. I can't stand it when groups (in this case anti-abortion ones) try to make an example out of something like this. What's more upsetting is that the morning after pill tends to be grouped with chemical abortion pills when it is only a larger dose of normal oral contraceptive. Adam Carolla has gone on many great rants about the this subject.
Why do anti-abortion groups not support the availability of prescription-free emergency contraceptive? There would be fewer abortions (chemical or surgical) wouldn't there? It's because they are Pro-Consequences and Pro- Telling You What to Do, not Pro-Life. That being said, I think RU-486 should be one of the last options for birth control, not the first.
