controllably
In regulated fashion
In a manner that can be controlled or regulated.
The adverb typically appears with negation—something happens uncontrollably far more often than controllably.
When it does appear, it usually emphasizes that a process or reaction can be managed: The drug releases controllably over twelve hours.
