"Will Contraceptives Disappear From Pharmacies for Good?"
All Pharmacies Should Sell Contraceptives - Take Action!
Most of us take for granted the ability to find standard
women's birth control oral contraceptives in our local pharmacies.
However, more and more people are losing this ability due to the emergence of "pro-life" pharmacies across the nation.
It's hard to believe, but these drugstores refuse to stock birth control pills, the morning-after pill and even condoms. Pharmacies in entire regions could follow suit,leaving patrons with no place to buy contraceptives for miles.
A full 98 percent of women of reproductive age who have had intercourse have used a contraceptive.
How can pharmacies ignore the reproductive health needs of virtually all of their female patrons?
One of these "pro-life" drugstores, DMC Pharmacy, is about to open in Virginia. If the Virginia Board of Pharmacy requires
DMC to stock contraceptives, other pharmacy boards may follow its lead.
Stop "pro-life" pharmacies before they sweep the nation. Nip this national health care problem in the bud.
Please tell the Virginia Board of Pharmacy to require pharmacies in its state to keep
contraceptives on their shelves.
