Vetoryl Capsules contain trilostane, an adrenosuppressant drug that is used to treat hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease) in dogs. 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.
