Can you have medication abortion now if you had an induced abortion a year ago?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. I had an abortion a year ago. Can I have medication abortion now?

Doctor's answer:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Yes.
To confirm an intrauterine pregnancy with a gestation less than 49 days: Mifepristone 50mg in the morning on the first day, 25mg at night; 25mg in the morning and evening on the second day; 25mg in the morning on the third day. One hour later, misoprostol 600μg is taken. If there is no expulsion of the gestational sac after 3 hours, the dose of misoprostol is increased by 200μg every hour until the sac is expelled. The total daily dose of misoprostol can reach 1200μg.
2. Gestation 10-16 weeks: Mifepristone 500mg twice daily for two days. On the third day, a carboprost (misoprostol) is placed in the posterior fornix of the vagina. 1mg is placed every two hours until the products of conception are expelled. The maximum dose is 5mg. Alternatively, misoprostol 600μg is placed every three hours. The maximum dose is 1800μg.
After medication, close observation is necessary.
