Ingredients | Vetoryl contains trilostane which is a chemical substance that blocks the production of cortisol. Cushing's syndrome is not curable but with Vetoryl® it can be very effectively controlled; maintaining a good quality of life for your dog for years to come. Vetoryl treats Cushing’s Syndrome which is the production of excessive amounts of cortisol, an important hormone that helps regulate the bodies metabolism. Left untreated Cushing’s Syndrome can have harmful effects on organs and on body regulation. It is one of the most common hormonal disorders, mostly occurring in middle-aged and older dogs. Vetoryl® contains a medicine called Trilostane which reduces the production of cortisol by the adrenal glands. Usually, within the first two weeks of treatment the clinical signs of Cushing’s such as lethargy, increased drinking, eating and urination will improve. It takes a bit longer for the pot belly, hair loss and skin changes to correct - between 3-6 months. Cushing’s syndrome is more often seen in older dogs, and in smaller breeds of dog. Because some of the signs of Cushing’s are very similar to those associated with normal ageing processes diagnosis can be challenging. The most noticeable signs of Cushing’s syndrome include: excessive urination with possible incontinence - increased water intake - ravenous appetite - pot-belly excessive panting, even at rest muscle wastage and weakness lethargy hairless, thin skin and recurrent skin infections - frequent urinary tract infections Most dogs with Cushing’s (approximately 85% of cases)have a benign tumour of the pituitary gland.The tumour cells produce large amounts of the hormone ACTH,which in turn stimulates the adrenal glands to over produce cortisol. The other cause of Cushing’s (approximately 15% of cases) is a tumour of one (or very rarely both) of the adrenal glands, which produces excessive amounts of cortisol. Left untreated Cushing’s syndrome will likely cause other health complications affecting the quality of life of your dog. |
