  1. I would check for UTI, timing/amount of her water consumption during the day, bloodwork, and blood pressure check before starting meds. Those things would help you rule out other issues as well as hedge your bets against side effects if no other problems are found. Good luck!

     

    I agree. Start by looking for the simple stuff first. Could be something easily fixable.

  2. My vet insisted on using Lysodren but Denise, if you're in touch with Jean Dodds, she will recommend the Trilostane and she also has a published article written on its success

     

    I wish this had been an option when Nevada was diagnosed. At the time it was not available in the USA. I probably would have tried this drug first. :(

  3. I have heard of people putting pills in a small glob of butter, putting it into the mouth and just holding the mouth closed. Once the butter starts melting, he will automatically start swallowing. Good luck and I hope he feels better soon.

     

    I tried this the other day with a friends pup.....worked like a charm!
