First over-the-counter birth control pill shipped in US

The first-ever over-the-counter birth control pill is now being shipped to US pharmacies.
 
The Food and Drug Administration last year approved the birth control pill Opill to be available without a prescription for women of all ages.
 
The agency said the move would reduce barriers to accessing contraception.
 
Opill's manufacturer said on Monday that the pill would be available in stores and online in the coming weeks for $19.99.
