Annostuksilla

Annostuksilla is a Finnish adessive plural form of the noun annostus, which refers to the act or regimen of dosing. The singular annostus means dosage or dosing, and the plural annostukset refers to multiple dosages. The adessive form annostuksilla conveys meanings like “with the dosages” or “at the dosages,” typically used to indicate the method, means, or conditions under which something is performed. The term is most common in scientific, medical, and formal texts.

In practice, annostuksilla is used to describe how a drug or substance is administered within a study or treatment plan, especially when comparing different dosing levels. Examples of usage include: “Tutkimuksessa lääkettä testattiin kolmen eri annostuksilla.” and “Hoidon annostuksilla ja aikatauluilla on vaikutus tuloksiin.” These constructions emphasize the specific dosing regimens or amount schedules employed.

Linguistic notes: annostuksilla is the plural adessive form of annostus and has related forms such as annostukset (nominative plural), annostuksina (essiive), and annostuksista (elative). The word originates from the verb annostaa, meaning to dose or administer, with the noun-forming suffix -us. In Finnish, the term appears mainly in technical, clinical, or pharmacological contexts rather than everyday speech.
