Vetoryl Capsules (Trilostane) for Dogs, 60mg

Vetoryl 60mg for Dogs

Advanced Cushing’s Disease Treatment

Vetoryl 60mg for Dogs is a veterinarian-recommended oral capsule formulated specifically to manage Cushing’s disease (hyperadrenocorticism) in canines. The active ingredient, trilostane, plays a pivotal role in regulating excess cortisol levels by inhibiting adrenal steroid synthesis. This targeted adrenal support improves energy levels, reduces excessive thirst and urination, and supports skin and coat health in dogs suffering from this endocrine disorder.

Vetoryl 60mg is primarily prescribed for dogs diagnosed with either pituitary-dependent or adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism. This treatment addresses common symptoms such as lethargy, panting, increased appetite, potbelly appearance, and hair loss—providing holistic hormonal regulation.

Prescription items are NON-RETURNABLE and NON-REFUNDABLE.
