A Florida judge shut down Planned Parenthood’s attempt to dismiss a lawsuit accusing the abortion giant of false advertising over claims that the abortion pill is safer than Tylenol and Viagra. 
Florida First Circuit Court Judge J. Scott Duncan <a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/1043974075/249006462-Order?_gl=1*hbrykr*_up*MQ..*_ga*MzQ0MzYwOTE2LjE3Nzk5MDkwNDk.*_ga_Z4ZC50DED6*czE3Nzk5MDkwNDgkbzEkZzEkdDE3Nzk5MDkwNTEkajU3JGwwJGgw*_ga_8KZ8BV0P5W*czE3Nzk5MDkwNDgkbzEkZzEkdDE3Nzk5MDkwNTEkajU3JGwwJGgw">ruled</a> Monday against Planned Parenthood&#8217;s motion to dismiss the lawsuit, which Attorney General James Uthmeier filed in November 2025. The suit accuses Planned Parenthood of violating Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act by misleading consumers about the safety of the abortion drug mifepristone.
Uthmeier is seeking up to $350 million in penalties. 
“The Defendants did not simply claim the abortion-inducing medications were safe; rather, according to the Complaint, they claimed they were safer than other medications,” Judge Duncan wrote. 
“In making a comparison, the Defendants went beyond vague promotional language,&#8221; the judge added. &#8220;Now whether these statements are actionable or non-actionable may depend on the context in which they were made.”
The lawsuit centers on a <a href="https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/abortion/the-abortion-pill/how-safe-is-the-abortion-pill">statement</a> on Planned Parenthood’s website claiming abortion pills are “safer than many other medicines like penicillin, Tylenol, and Viagra.”
Planned Parenthood argued that the statements amounted to legally protected promotional language and could not be treated as false advertising. 
Uthmeier’s office praised the ruling. 
“We thank our team of litigators who argued against Planned Parenthood’s meritless attempt to dismiss our case against them,” Jeremy Redfern, Uthmeier’s deputy chief of staff, told The Daily Wire. “This decision brings us one step closer to holding Planned Parenthood accountable for profiting from abortions by lying to women about abortion pills being safer than Tylenol.”
Mifepristone cuts off the nutrients that an unborn child needs to survive in the womb. A second drug is then taken to expel the deceased baby from the mother. 
The <a href="https://www.myfloridalegal.com/sites/default/files/final-complaint-1106.pdf">lawsuit</a> seeks a $10,000 penalty for every chemical abortion performed in Florida under the alleged deceptive safety claims. Florida estimated that the total could be roughly $350 million based on approximately 35,000 abortions. 
“Tylenol is an over-the-counter pain medicine that everyone understands, intuitively and by experience, to be safe,” the lawsuit said. “Chemical abortion, by contrast, uses mifepristone and misoprostol and is far more dangerous. Use of chemical abortion drugs routinely lands women in the emergency room with hemorrhaging and other serious complications.”
The Food and Drug Administration says it is currently reviewing the safety of mifepristone. Pro-life advocates and several GOP attorneys general have urged the Trump administration to reverse Biden-era regulations allowing the drug to be prescribed without an in-person doctor’s visit.
