Each capsule holds 30 mg of trilostane, a synthetic steroid analogue that dials back cortisol production in the adrenal cortex. One capsule a day with food manages both pituitary-dependent and adrenal-dependent forms of the disease, making it a practical choice for medium-sized dogs needing a moderate therapeutic dose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBenefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreats Cushing's Disease:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works for both pituitary-dependent and adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, covering the two most common forms seen in dogs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTargets the Root Cause:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trilostane reversibly blocks 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in the adrenal cortex, cutting off the source of excess cortisol production.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClinically Proven Results:\u003c\/strong\u003e Field studies showed most dogs experienced less thirst, less urination, and reduced panting within just 14 days of starting therapy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOnce-Daily Convenience:\u003c\/strong\u003e One oral dose a day fits easily into any routine, making long-term disease management much more manageable for pet owners.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMid-Range Strength Option:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 30 mg per capsule, this is a commonly prescribed mid-range choice that suits medium-sized dogs needing moderate trilostane levels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReversible Suppression:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trilostane's effect on cortisol production can be reversed, giving your veterinarian the flexibility to adjust or stop treatment when needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eComposition Table\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 41.8539%; height: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6023px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.9811%; height: 19.6023px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredient\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 61.7418%; height: 19.6023px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6023px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.9811%; height: 19.6023px;\"\u003eTrilostane\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 61.7418%; height: 19.6023px;\"\u003e30 mg per capsule\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOther Ingredients\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGelatin capsule shell, Lactose, Magnesium Stearate, Colloidal Silicon Dioxide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDosage \u0026amp; Administration Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrescription Required:\u003c\/strong\u003e US Federal law limits this medication to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor Dogs Only:\u003c\/strong\u003e This medication is for oral use in dogs only and must never be given to humans or other animal species.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStarting Dose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Your veterinarian determines the correct starting dose for your dog individually, taking body weight and health status into account before prescribing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGive With Food:\u003c\/strong\u003e One dose each morning with food helps the body absorb it better and lowers the chance of stomach upset.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKeep the Capsule Whole:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never open, empty, or split a capsule; always give it exactly as dispensed without any modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEarly Check-In:\u003c\/strong\u003e Around 10 to 14 days after starting, your vet will want to see your dog again for an ACTH stimulation test and a full biochemistry check.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDose Adjustments:\u003c\/strong\u003e Any changes to the dose will be guided by test results and how your dog is responding clinically; always follow your veterinarian's lead on this.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWatch for Warning Signs:\u003c\/strong\u003e If your dog shows vomiting, diarrhea, unusual tiredness, loss of appetite, weakness, or collapse, stop the medication and call your vet straight away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWash Hands After Handling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Give your hands a good wash with soap and water after every time you handle the capsules.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisclaimer:\u003c\/strong\u003e This dosage information is provided by the manufacturer.

It works for both the pituitary-dependent form, which is the most common, and the adrenal-dependent form, where a tumor on the adrenal gland drives excess cortisol production throughout the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ2: How does the 30 mg capsule differ from the 10 mg capsule?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 30 mg capsule delivers three times the dose of the 10 mg option in a single administration. It is better suited for medium-sized dogs where a lower strength would not reach a therapeutic level. Your veterinarian will decide which capsule strength best matches your dog's weight and clinical needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ3: How quickly does Vetoryl 30 mg start working in dogs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Most dogs showed noticeable improvement within 14 days of starting treatment in clinical field studies. Early signs of progress included less thirst, reduced urination, and lower panting levels. A follow-up ACTH stimulation test is usually scheduled around the 10 to 14 day mark to check how well the dose is working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ4: Why does my dog need regular testing while on Vetoryl 30 mg?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Testing is essential because even at the right dose, Vetoryl can push adrenal suppression too far, leading to Addison's disease. Regular ACTH stimulation tests and biochemistry panels keep cortisol levels within a safe range and give your vet the information needed to fine-tune the dose over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ5: Is Vetoryl (Trilostane) 30 mg a cure for Cushing's disease in dogs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e No. Vetoryl manages the condition rather than curing it. It reduces cortisol production and relieves symptoms, but the underlying disease remains. Stopping the medication allows cortisol levels to climb again and symptoms to return, which is why most dogs stay on it for life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eClinical Research\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.aaha.org\/newstat\/publications\/monitoring-strategies-for-trilostane-therapy-in-dogs-with-cushings-syndrome\/\" title=\"Https:\/\/www.aaha.org\/newstat\/publications\/monitoring-strategies-for-trilostane-therapy-in-dogs-with-cushings-syndrome\/\" aria-label=\"Visit a webpage about Https:\/\/www.aaha.org\/newstat\/publications\/monitoring-strategies-for-trilostane-therapy-in-dogs-with-cushings-syndrome\/\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.aaha.org\/newstat\/publications\/monitoring-strategies-for-trilostane-therapy-in-dogs-with-cushings-syndrome\/\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC5855282\/\" title=\"Update on the use of trilostane in dogs - pmc\" aria-label=\"Visit a webpage about Update on the use of trilostane in dogs - pmc\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5855282\/\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dechra","offers":[{"title":"30 Capsules","offer_id":44488071053473,"sku":"VET-030","price":1020.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 Capsules","offer_id":44488071086241,"sku":"VET-030-60","price":2039.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/2446\/5313\/files\/vetoryl-capsules-trilostane-for-dogs-30mg-pet-medicine-431.webp?v=1777636665","url":"https:\/\/hardypaw.com\/en-hk\/products\/dechra-vetoryl-capsules-for-dogs-30mg","provider":"HardyPaw","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
