administrées

Administrées is the feminine plural past participle of the verb administrer in French. It agrees with feminine plural nouns and is used primarily as an adjective to indicate that something has been administered or implemented by an authority or system. For example, les doses administrées (administered doses) and les substances administrées (administered substances). In medical contexts, it often accompanies nouns denoting medications, vaccines, or other therapeutic substances. In administrative or bureaucratic contexts, it can appear with nouns referring to actions or measures that have been carried out, though the phrase is less common than alternative formulations such as mesures mises en œuvre.

As a grammatical form, administrées is the feminine plural; the related forms include administré (masculine singular) and administrée (feminine singular). It is primarily a participle used as an adjective rather than a standalone noun; its use to name a group of people is rare and context dependent.

Etymology: administrer comes from French, ultimately tracing to Latin administrare, formed from ad- ‘to’ and ministrare ‘to serve or tend’. The word retains a straightforward agreement pattern: when the head noun is feminine and plural, the participle takes the form administrées.
