CONTEXT: Misoprostol was used by women across Mexico to induce abortion even before 2007, when first-trimester abortion was legalized in Mexico City. Pharmacy vendors' misoprostol recommendation practices across subregions of Mexico after abortion legalization warrant examination.

Bivariate and multivariate analyses were used to explore associations between pharmacy, vendor and client characteristics and drug access.
