redosing
Another dose administered
Redosing is taking an additional dose of a drug or medication after an initial dose, typically to extend or intensify effects.
The term appears frequently in discussions of recreational drug use, where timing and quantity of redosing affect safety: She made the mistake of redosing too soon.
In medical contexts, it refers to administering follow-up doses during procedures or treatment.
