Vetoryl 30mg for Dogs

Cushings Disease Treatment That Works

Vetoryl 30mg Capsules are a veterinary-prescribed medication specifically formulated to manage hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease) in dogs. The active ingredient, trilostane, helps regulate cortisol production by inhibiting the enzyme involved in adrenal steroid synthesis. This makes Vetoryl 30mg one of the most effective oral treatments for both pituitary-dependent and adrenal-dependent Cushing’s disease in dogs.

Cushing’s disease can lead to symptoms like increased thirst, excessive urination, hair loss, panting, and lethargy. Vetoryl 30mg for dogs targets these symptoms by restoring hormonal balance, improving your dog’s overall vitality and well-being.
