    No - it is a very different product with a different (to my knowledge much "milder") active ingredient.

    I hope that's true. This seems like al all-round good thing. It doesn't kill off fetuses (err, or feti? ) but mealy prevents fertilization.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    Great plan, but the minimum age requirement is set way too high. Fifteen or fourteen would be better.

    In case anybody is interested in more information - here is Barr's product website on "Plan B"

    A good step in the right direction - certainly a better option than abortion.

    Agreed. Sex happens before age 18, whether or not parents and congressmen want it to.

Then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?"

    Pretty sure there are a few congressmen that can attest to that.

    Of course women/girls under 18 still have access to it - just not as OTC-drug, which might not be perfect considering the 72h threshold, but is a workable compromise IMO.

    I wasn't aware they weren't available... but then, I live a lot of the time in China.

    They also have sex (and get pregnant) at 12. Why not that?
