This bill amends existing Washington state laws regarding prescription labels for medications used in abortion procedures. Specifically, it allows for the prescription label for abortion medications to include either the prescriber's national practitioner identification number or the name of the health care facility instead of the prescriber's name, at the request of the prescriber. The bill defines "abortion medications" as substances intended to induce the termination of a pregnancy, including mifepristone.

Additionally, the bill updates the labeling requirements for legend drugs, aligning them with the new provisions for abortion medications. Both sections emphasize that violations of these labeling requirements are classified as misdemeanors. The changes aim to enhance privacy and confidentiality for patients receiving abortion-related care while maintaining necessary information on medication labels.
