Clinic name on abortion pill labels

In Maine, you can have the clinic or facility name on the label instead of your prescriber’s name. This only applies to mifepristone, misoprostol, and their generic versions. It happens only when your prescriber asks the pharmacy to use the facility name. All other required label details stay the same.
