single dose
Single administered amount
A single dose is one measured unit of a medication or substance taken at one time.
The term distinguishes from multiple doses spread across time or divided administrations: The vaccine requires only a single dose.
Single-dose packaging contains exactly enough for one use, reducing contamination risk and simplifying measurement.
