A Japanese health-ministry advisory panel has approved a plan to allow the purchase of emergency contraceptive drugs without a doctor&#039;s prescription.
        
                    
                  
So-called &quot;morning-after pills&quot; are said to be highly effective at preventing pregnancy if taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. There have been calls for easier access to them.
        
                    
                  
The plan sets no age limit for purchases. It would allow minors to buy the drugs without parental consent. But only specially trained pharmacists would be able to sell them.
        
                    
                  
Those needing the pills would be required to buy them in person, get guidance from the pharmacist and take them on the spot. That is because the sooner the drug enters the system, the more effective it is.
        
                    
                  
The health ministry says it will seek feedback from the public before giving the final go-ahead for the plan.
        
                    
                  
The ministry says official approval usually takes three to four months.
