Easier Access to Over-the-Counter Oral Contraceptives

This act aims to make oral contraceptives more accessible by encouraging manufacturers to seek approval for over-the-counter sales. This means citizens might be able to purchase these medications more easily in the future, without needing a doctor's prescription. The act also requires studies to ensure that product labeling is clear and understandable for everyone.
Key points
Potential for oral contraceptives to be available without a prescription, increasing accessibility.
