Mifepristone is approved for use up to 10 weeks ’ gestation, or 70 days .
Some doctors may prescribe it beyond that time frame, a practice called off-label use.
In 15 states, the medication must be dispensed by physicians, rather than pharmacists.
14 states have near-total bans on abortion, which include medication abortions carried out within state lines.
People also sometimes order the medication online, from places such as Plan C and AidAccess , which send pills by mail — but McDonald-Mosley said people should be aware of the legal ramifications they may face in their states.

Although mifepristone is medically very safe, “there could be legal risks, which is important for people to know,” she said. This article was originally published on NBCNews.com .
