I think putting Plan B OTC will basically give teens permission to have unprotected sex. It is a much more convenient form of birth control...yet it won't keep them from getting lovely STD's... Something tells me there are more dangerous side-effects than regular OTC drugs also. Making this so readily available to teen girls could be very dangerous. As a prescription drug, you know that they have at least seen a doctor. Also, the girls have the opportunity to talk to a pharmacist about all of the aspects of the drug. Putting Plan B over the counter is a terrible idea on so many levels...
