H.R. 685
SAVE Moms and Babies Act of 2025
In plain English
The SAVE Moms and Babies Act of 2025 would block FDA approval of new drugs intended to end a pregnancy, including generic versions. Drugs already approved for that purpose would require a prescription, and the FDA could not approve label changes allowing use after 70 days of pregnancy or delivery other than in person by the prescriber. Prescribers would need special certification and the ability to provide surgery, and they could not also serve as the dispensing pharmacist. The bill would affect patients seeking these drugs, health care providers, and drug makers, and would cancel certain exemptions for research use.
