The abortion pill (RU-486) is a completely different drug from Emergency Birth Control options like Plan B, Plan B One-Step, and Next Choice. Emergency Birth Control Pills contain common female hormones and are higher doses of common birth control pills. They prevent pregnancy but do not cause an abortion.
