Plan B Stock Photo
Buying Plan B has been a problem across the country, with multiple
pharmacies refusing to sell the pill to men.
ACLU-New Jersey

   A Rite Aid in New Jersey came under fire in April of 2012 for refusing to sell Plan B
   to 25-year old Andrew Andrade, who was purchasing the pill for his girlfriend.
   Staff members told Andrade that the law stated men were unable to purchase
   the morning-after pill.
Walgreens.com
In late 2010, Adam Drake was refused Plan B at a Walgreens in Houston, Texas. Both the
pharmacist and the store manager stated that if they provided the drug to a male, they
could lose their licenses. The pharmacist later called Drake and stated that there had been
reports of men dropping emergency contraception in women’s drinks, which contributed
to their policy.

Walgreens customers have also had problems in Mississippi and Oklahoma.
cvs.com
Jason Melbourne of Mesquite, Texas attempted to buy Plan B for his wife from a
CVS while she was at home with their two young children, but the pharmacy
refused to sell it to him. When asked why, they responded it was because “ they
don't sell emergency contraception to men because they might be giving it to
"rape victims." “
