Etymology
1. 1600, from M.Fr.
dose, from L.L.
dosis, from Gk.
dosis "a portion prescribed," lit. "a giving," used by Galen and other Gk. physicians to mean an amount of medicine, from
didonai "to give." Slang meaning "venereal disease" is from 1914.
2. Borrowed from Middle French dose, from Late Latin dosis, from Ancient Greek δόσις (dósis, “a portion prescribed”, literally “a giving”), used by Galen and other Greek physicians to mean an amount of medicine, from δίδωμι (dídōmi, “to give”). Mostly displaced English drench. Doublet of doos.
