Side effects / safety

Missing: As I write this, the words "side effects," "safety," "safe," "over-the-counter," and/or "over the counter" do not appear anywhere in the article. In the United States, it is sold over the counter cheaply at Walmart, for example, 88 cents a bottle, so it must be relatively safe? 5Q5 (talk) 14:20, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Historical aboratificant?

I'm reading a book set in the early 1900s and the protagonist takes something called a "liver pill" when she finds out she's pregnant. It doesn't end up being effective. Since "liver pill" redirects here, I was wondering if anyone knows if this substance had any historical use as an abortificant. Clovermoss (talk) 01:50, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
