Abortion pills will be controlled substances in Louisiana soon. Doctors have concerns

Opponents argue the classification could have catastrophic impacts in a state that already has a near-total abortion ban and one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the nation. Doctors fear the reclassification will cause delays in accessing the drugs mifepristone and misoprostol which together can be used to manage miscarriages, while misoprostol induces labor and treats severe bleeding after delivery.
