Re resp:498: Either he jettisoned them to run with Al Gore, or he
jettisoned them to cozy up to Bush. I'm not sure which because I don't
know what his original principles actually are. Either way, it sounds
like neither of us has much respect for him.

2 more women die after taking abortion pill
FDA issues alert; rare infection is suspected
By Jonathan D. Rockoff
Tribune Newspapers: Baltimore Sun
Published March 18, 2006
WASHINGTON -- Two more women who took the abortion pill RU-486 have
died, according to federal drug regulators who are investigating whether
the same rare infection that caused four earlier deaths was responsible.
In announcing the two additional cases Friday, the Food and Drug
Administration issued an alert urging doctors and patients to follow
approved directions for the drug, which is used in combination with
another medication, and look for symptoms warranting immediate
attention.
The agency did not provide further details about the two deaths, which
followed reports that four women in California died from septic shock
since 2003 after undergoing medical abortions, as the procedure for
using RU-486 is called.

Now if Plan B were widely availab,e fewer women would need such
medications like RU-486.

A deeper investigation of the deaths disclosed that there is a second drug
that also needs to be taken. The distinction in terms of health outcomes
appears to be whether or not the second drug is taken orally or vaginally.
Don't hold your breath waiting for the anti-RU486 crowd to grasp that
subtlety, however.

I wonder how the death rate of RU-482 compares to the death rate of
actual child birth?

People also die due to other medication, or surgery - and there are no deaths
from the RU-486 procedure if the FDA guidelines are followed. That news bit
is irrelevant to the discussion of abortion.

I've noticed a lot of people seem to confuse Plan B with RU-486. I
wonder how much of the opposition to Plan B is due to that confusion?

Both limit reproduction. That is enough for some people to oppose.

I'm as much against RU-486 as I am against any other abortion.
I was uninformed about Plan B and started out against it. I've now
moved to a neutral position. I am not sure if I should consider it to
be an abortion. If it is not killing a fetus, then I am not against it.

Plan B does not kill a fetus. From what I understand, it prevents an
egg from being fertalized.

I am not opposed to the use of Plan B, and somewhat neutral on RU-486.

Something a few days old is not a fetus, it is an embryo.

No, but since RU-486 is effective in the first two months of pregnancy,
and the embryonic stage ends on the 6th weeks, there are two weeks
where RU-486 could be used to abort a fetus.
What happens when RU486 is taken after the first two months of
pregnancy?

Re resp:518: I thought it worked by preventing implantation of the egg
into the uterine lining.

resp:524 It does that too. This is from the FDA's PlanB website
" Plan B works like other birth control pills to prevent pregnancy. Plan
B acts primarily by stopping the release of an egg from the ovary
(ovulation). It may prevent the union of sperm and egg (fertilization).
If fertilization does occur, Plan B may prevent a fertilized egg from
attaching to the womb (implantation). If a fertilized egg is implanted
prior to taking Plan B, Plan B will not work. "
