A dosing device for an administration device with a limiting mechanism, comprising a first limiting means (50) with a first stop means (500), a second limiting means (30) with a second stop means (300), wherein the second limiting means (30) follows movements of the first limiting means (50) during dosing movements with a defined transmission ratio, wherein the second limiting means (30) does not move relative to the first limiting means (50) during administration processes, and wherein the first stop means (500) and the second stop means (300) each describe a closed path curve (U1, U2) by their movements in such a manner that the two path curves (U1, U2) intersect in at least one point or come so close together that the stop means (300, 500) contact one another in a stop position, whereby a blocking of the movement of the limiting means (30,50) relative to each other during dosing movements can be effected, wherein starting from the stop position the two path curves (U1,U2) of the first and second limiting means (50,30) intersect again at the stop position after preferably multiple runs by the first and second stop means (500,300), the distances or angles of rotation from stop position to stop position defining a period, whereby the initial starting position of the second limiting means (30) inside the period is selected to program the dosage limitation to a desired distance or angle of rotation of the first and second limiting means (50,30) in the period.
