Ontario making abortion pill Mifegymiso free for all who need it

Women will be able to fill their prescription at a pharmacy and have the abortion -- which is the same experience as an early-term miscarriage -- at home, she said.

The Ontario government is promising to soon make an abortion pill free for all women in the province.

Mifegymiso, known as RU-486 outside of Canada, is a combination of two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol. After years of study, Health Canada approved its use as a non-surgical option for abortion up to seven weeks. It became available to the Canadian public in January and costs $300 to $450.

According to the Ontario health minister’s office, the government is in conversations with the drug manufacturer, Celopharma, and hopes to begin covering the drug in the near future. Women with a prescription will be able to get it for free at a pharmacy.

The announcement, made in the Ontario budget released Thursday, was welcomed by reproductive rights advocates.

Lyndsey Butcher, executive director of the Shore Centre, a sexual health resource centre in the Waterloo, Ont, region, said she was thrilled by the news.

Even though the abortion pill was technically made available to Canadians in January, access to it has been limited, Butcher said, and women in her area have had to go to abortion clinics in Toronto to obtain it.
