In a non-binding decision, the student senate voted unanimously to offer the morning-after pill, best known as Plan B, in vending machines around the university.
/Gray News) – The University of Florida is one step closer to allowing students access to emergency contraceptive pills 24/7 in vending machines.
The main issue is that the pharmacy is closed for 43 hours straight on the weekends during the school year. If students need an emergency contraceptive over the weekend, not having it readily available decreases the pill’s effectiveness, as the pill is the most effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within the first 24 hours after sex.
While students could go off-campus to get Plan B over the weekend, it will cost a lot more. The pill is available for $10 at the university’s pharmacy, which is cheaper than at most pharmacies like Walgreens or CVS, where Plan B typically runs in the $50 range for a single pill. “They shut us out,” said Alia Delong, a member of the National Women’s Liberation Gainesville chapter. “This is the first time that this project has revived since we got that response from UF .”
