Report Warns International Abortion Drugs Are Flooding U.S. Market

ARLINGTON, VA — A new Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI) report reveals a growing public health threat: international entities are shipping massive quantities of abortion drugs into the U.S., often bypassing legal safeguards. Unregulated online pharmacies, foreign abortion centers, and community networks are sending pills nationwide, frequently without prescriptions, medical consultations, or gestational limits.

Drug-induced abortions now make up two-thirds of U.S. abortions, and CLI links the surge to the FDA’s 2021 removal of the in-person dispensing requirement. The report warns that these uncontrolled shipments put women at risk of coercion, incomplete abortions, and dangerous complications, while circumventing U.S. law.

Tessa Cox, CLI senior research associate, stated, “Weak enforcement allows these supply chains to flourish, threatening thousands of unborn babies and placing countless women at risk. Organizations shipping drugs internationally cannot verify who receives them, creating a dangerous and unsustainable problem.”

The report calls for immediate federal action to block international abortion drug shipments and protect women and children.

Previously, the UOJ reported that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was targeting abortion-pill distributors.
