Planned Parenthood Could Lose $350 Million for Lying About Abortion Pills
Life News ^ | November 10, 2025 | Steven Ertelt

Florida’s attorney general has launched a sweeping lawsuit against Planned Parenthood, accusing the nation’s largest abortion company of deceptive advertising that downplays the severe risks of chemical abortion pills.

The lawsuit could potentially cost the pro-abortion organization up to $350 million in penalties.

The 37-page complaint, filed last week under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, targets Planned Parenthood’s claims that the abortion drug mifepristone is “safer than Tylenol.”

State officials allege the assertions are not only false but have endangered women’s lives and fueled billions in profits for the group, with a staggering 500% profit margin on the pills.

“We want to hold people accountable for hurting our women, for hurting our children, and these lawsuits are seeking to do it,” Attorney General James Uthmeier said in announcing the action. “They have been wrongfully deceiving women out there, advertising that these new chemical abortion pills are safer than Tylenol and pain medications you’d get over the shelf. Our evidence suggests that is entirely false.”

The suit draws on data showing that one in 10 women who take the pills ends up hospitalized, a rate far exceeding that of common pain relievers like acetaminophen. It also cites at least 36 deaths linked to mifepristone complications since 2000 — more than one per year on average — and references a recent study debunking the safety claims.

Uthmeier described the evidence as overwhelming, calling the case a “slam-dunk.”

“The evidence shows hospitalizations at significantly higher rates than going to the hospital for taking Tylenol. They’re lying to the public. They need to be held accountable,” he said.

The penalties sought are steep: $10,000 for each chemical abortion sold by Planned Parenthood in Florida since the group began promoting the misleading safety narrative. Officials estimate the total could reach $350 million, a figure that underscores the scale of what they call a predatory scheme preying on vulnerable women.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

They should lose more than that in my opinion.

I would love PP to be sued and greatly hurt, as they only care about money. Also because they have a long history of deceptive business practices.

However in this particular product’s case, I have no sympathy for their clients. These are women who decided to chemically murder their unborn children.

Those are one-off stories. Vast overwhelming majority is women. You look for the one/few exceptions and try to act like its way more. Its not.

Of course, most abortion pills are voluntarily taken. But, there are two known cases of men slipping an abortion pill into their pregnant wife’s/girlfriend’s beverage without their knowledge. There are probably more cases out there we’ll never know of.
