Benefits
- Indicated for the treatment of pituitary-dependent and adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease and syndrome) in dogs
- Blocks the excessive production of cortisol by reversibly inhibiting the action of the enzyme 3-ß hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase
- While treatment with trilostane significantly reduces serum cortisol concentrations, it has not been found to reduce aldosterone significantly
