Description

Trilostane is an FDA approved medication used to treat Cushing’s disease (hyperadrenocorticism) in dogs and cats, and Alopecia X in dogs. It decreases the production of the cortisol hormone by blocking the enzyme needed to make it in the adrenal glands. Trilostane is a synthetic enzyme drug that does not cure the condition but can help manage it.
Dogs usually respond to this medication therapy within two to four weeks. Your veterinarian will monitor your dog closely, especially at the start of the treatment.
Trilostane is also used to treat Cushing’s disease in cats. While this disease is not common in cats, those with Cushing’s disease may also have underlying diabetes mellitus. Trilostane has not been proven to change their insulin needs.
Trilostane can also be used for the treatment of pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) in horses.

Possible Side Effects

Trilostane compounded in cod liver oil is generally safe, however, the most common side effects can include diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, mild electrolyte abnormalities, or lack of appetite during the first few days of therapy secondary to steroid withdrawal. These side effects are usually mild.
Hypoadrenocorticism can happen and is generally reversible once the medication is stopped, however in some cases, adrenal gland damage can occur in dogs.
In cats, side effects can include anorexia, lethargy, and dulled mental activity.
A life-threatening condition, called an Addisonian crisis, can occur while your pet is using this medication. Your pet should be monitored closely for diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, shaking, weakness, collapse, and increased drinking or urination. Contact your veterinarian immediately if these side effects or allergic reactions continue or become more severe.

  • Ace Inhibitors :(e.g. benazepril, enalapril): When combined may increase risk for hyperkalemia.
  • Ketoconazole: When combined may potentiate the effects of trilostane and lead to hypoadrenocorticism.
