Maryland joins a handful of states to bypass a ctor and get Birth Control straight from the pharmacist. It makes it more accessible and affordable.

If they want it, the pharmacist can do a full consuation and the patient can leave with the medication in hand. Reporter safew is one of the first to offer the service.
