Vetoryl (Trilostane) capsules - 30 count, various strengths
Product Details
Master product ID: 494224560
Master product options: Capsule Size: 60 mg
FOR VET AT YOUR DOOR CLIENTS ONLY (we must have seen your animal in the last 12 months).
Storage Directions
VETORYL Capsules are available in 3 sizes (10, 30 and 60 mg) for oral administration based on body weight. Trilostane (4α, 5α-epoxy-17β-hydroxy-3-oxoandrostane-2α-carbonitrile) is an orally active synthetic steroid analogue that selectively inhibits 3 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in the adrenal cortex, thereby inhibiting the conversion of pregnenolone to progesterone. This inhibition blocks production of glucocorticoids and to a lesser extent, mineralocorticoids and sex hormones while steroid precursor levels increase.
Why Vetoryl Capsules?
- Contain the active ingredient trilostane.
- Trilostane 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.†
Indications
- VETORYL Capsules are indicated for the treatment of pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism in dogs.
- VETORYL Capsules are indicated for the treatment of hyperadrenocorticism due to adrenocortical tumor in dogs.
Storage Directions
Store at room temperature 25°C (77°F) with excursions between 15°- 30°C (59°- 86°F) permitted. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Human Warnings
Keep out of reach of children. Not for human use.
Wash hands after use. Do not empty capsule contents and do not attempt to divide the capsules. Do not handle the capsules if pregnant or if trying to conceive. Trilostane is associated with teratogenic effects and early pregnancy loss in laboratory animals. In the event of accidental ingestion/overdose, seek medical advice immediately and take the labeled container with you.
Contraindications
The use of Vetoryl Capsules is contraindicated in dogs that have demonstrated hypersensitivity to trilostane. Do not use Vetoryl Capsules in animals with primary hepatic disease or renal insufficiency . Do not use in pregnant dogs. Studies conducted with trilostane in laboratory animals have shown teratogenic effects and early pregnancy loss.

Other less serious side effects such as unexpected decrease in appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy may occur. Other side effects may also occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to your dog.
