A recent USA Today article discussed how the recent ruling by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals regarding the abortion drug mifepristone's delivery and administration has far-reaching implications for the FDA's regulatory authority over medications. The court's decision challenges the FDA's power in making medical decisions and could potentially impact its past and future judgments. This ruling may lead to questions about the FDA's role in approving various drugs, including politically contentious ones like COVID-19 vaccines and treatments. Concerns are also raised about potential litigation against FDA decisions and the destabilizing effects on drug safety determinations.
