How long can you dose it? Will it eventually cause issues I’d say you dose it for 6 months? A year? Forever?

I would think at some point it will mess with some aspect of water chemistry.
 
Not sure anyone doses it past when what they are trying to get rid of for example cyano, Dino’s etc. Personally I’m scared to use it.
 
What are you trying to dose it for? H2O2 reacts very quickly and becomes H2O and O2. The O2 dissipates relatively quickly as well, leaving behind nothing that could build up over time in your aquarium.

That being said, I've never had luck with it in getting rid of any algea in the aquarium at doses that would be safe for dosing. I have had luck before removing rock and dipping them in H2O2 for 3-4 minutes, then putting back in the tank though.
