Trilostane: Product Overview

Definition:
Trilostane is a synthetic steroid inhibitor primarily used in the treatment of conditions related to excess cortisol production, such as Cushing’s disease in dogs. It works by inhibiting the enzyme 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, which is essential for cortisol synthesis.

Function:
Trilostane effectively reduces cortisol levels, alleviating symptoms associated with hyperadrenocorticism. It stabilizes adrenal gland function and provides relief from excessive hormone secretion.

Applications:

· Veterinary Medicine: Used in the management of Cushing’s disease in animals, particularly dogs.

· Research: Applied in studies involving cortisol regulation and adrenal function.
