These keep for two years.

If you're a fertile birthing person, it's a good idea to order them stat.

Even if you live in what is (for now) a state that permits abortion.

We live in a time of fascist creep. Be prepared for what might come next.

@gwensnyder In the U.S., one in four women will end a pregnancy in her lifetime—yet abortion is now illegal in 12 states, leaving millions without access to care And although most U.S. maternal deaths are preventable, the country has one of the highest maternal mortality rates among wealthy nations
@Geri @gwensnyder Like Nancy Reagan used to say, “Just say NO. “ Women must start to say NO to men. May be they will start marching.
@gwensnyder Most meds keep longer in the fridge. I stockpiled my beta blockers for a few years when they were in short supply, years ago, here in Canada.
@gwensnyder
It would be cool if we had a means of donating to a buy ahead scheme because you know big Pharma gonna cash in.

@gwensnyder many medications actually usually keep an order of magnitude longer than that if stored properly, or at the very least are still safe to take, barring any chemical-specific reactions:

i'd still replace it after it expires if possible to make sure you get exactly the dose that you need for it to work though, of course

Are expired drugs safe and does the medicine expiration date really matter?...

@gwensnyder

guess that will work until they send the Nazis door to door to check the house. carry on

@gwensnyder remember to employ a slow hoard of just a few at a time more than usual or purchase just twice as frequently so we don't clean out the shelves or cause backorders for those buying for immediate use.
@gwensnyder if you aren’t fertile you should get them for people who may not have access.
@gwensnyder best to buy in person, with cash. Leave no trail. That includes digital trails, web searches, and mapping/navigation histories.

@gwensnyder

Seems like the shelf-life of mifepristone is a lot longer under proper (low-humidity) conditions. Up to 5 years before it starts to lose efficacy if kept dry.

I'm no expert, but it sounds like putting it in an air-tight container with one of those desiccant packets would help.
