Explanation:
Treatment was carried out by a team, in order to appropriately manage the lowest dose necessaary to reverse current symptoms.

A MENOR DOSE means THE LOWEST DOSE, whereas UMA MENOR DOSE would mean A LOWER DOSE to me.

for the adequate management of the lowest dose enough to effectively reverse the current symptoms


Explanation:
A menor dose is the lowest dose.
It is not the appropriate treatment, but the appropriate management of the required dose which they are referring to.

proper management at the lowest [effective] dose


Explanation:
'Managment' is key; it's an important term in this context, and 'adequate' is too weak here.

Another key is 'effective' dose.

There is no substitute for 'lowest effective dose' - 1,650,000 hits - example:
