A Texas judge is holding a hearing that could potentially end government approval of the abortion drug, mifepristone, due to concerns about its harmful side effects that have been overlooked by the government, with pro-life organization, Alliance Defending Freedom, filing a lawsuit arguing that the government purposely ignored the drug’s harmful side effects, putting women’s health at risk.
A Texas judge has taken an important step towards protecting the lives of the unborn by scheduling a hearing that could potentially end government approval of an abortion drug. The drug, mifepristone, has been on the market since 2000, but there are concerns about its harmful side effects that have been overlooked by the government.
Alliance Defending Freedom, a pro-life organization, filed a lawsuit in November on behalf of four anti-abortion medical organizations and four doctors who treated patients with mifepristone. The lawsuit argues that the government purposely ignored the drug’s harmful side effects, putting women’s health at risk.
While mifepristone has been approved by the FDA for use in ending early pregnancies, there are concerns about its safety and efficacy, particularly when used outside of a clinical setting. It is essential for women to be informed about the potential risks and side effects of this medication before making a decision about whether or not to use it.
Mifepristone is an abortion drug that is used in combination with another drug, misoprostol, to end a pregnancy. Like any medication, it can have side effects that range from mild to severe. Some of the many side effects of mifepristone include:
- Heavy bleeding
- Infection
- An incomplete abortion, which may require emergency surgical intervention
- Abdominal cramping
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Fever or chills
- Allergic reactions to the drug, such as swelling, difficulty breathing, and hives
U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, appointed by President Donald Trump in 2019, has taken the extraordinary step of not publicizing the hearing to limit protests. However, the hearing will still be open to the public, and any decision reached could be appealed to the conservative U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit, and will likely be met by protestors.
This hearing could be a significant step towards protecting the sanctity of life and ensuring that women’s health is not put at risk by dangerous drugs that are easily handed out in an effort to maintain easy-access abortions. It is also time for the government and state lawmakers to take a closer look at the safety of drugs like mifepristone, and put the health and well-being of women and their unborn children first.

Before anyone makes comment in favor of abortion drug they should do some research. The results are horrific. Take heed, Regardless of some statements that these drugs will not be accessed by very young girls that is impossible to prove. We know that where there is felt a need,it will be provided, even by the mother of the girl involved. These drugs are not ready for prime time and if you don’t want to get pregnant and need them a little more restraint may still be required for safety. It’s a matter of life and death.
