A Lifeline 4 You

How does giving a much larger dose of a powerful hormonal drug, levonorgestrel, (Plan B) to minor girls without a prescription make any sense when the same drug at a much lower dose (the Pill) can only be prescribed by a supervising physician to adult women ?

Whom does this benefit?

Whom does it hurt?

Obviously, the risks of dangerous (sometimes lethal) side effects of this drug can only be increased by increasing it’s dosage.
