    Lysodren

    Lysodren Description
    Lysodren is a treatment option for dogs that have been diagnosed with canine Cushing's disease. This medication has two phases: a "loading" phase and a "maintenance" phase. The combination of the medication's two phases allows for better care of your dog's disease so he or she can be feeling like normal in no time.

    Lysodren is a perfect treatment option as it is kind your wallet. In addition, Lysodren is incredibly easy to administer to your dog. This treatment option is not a shot or a pill that you have to force your dog to swallow by hiding it in its food. There is no need to tempt your dog to take its medication in numerous unhealthy treats as this medication comes in a convenient chewable tablet.

    Lysodren is the Generic Alternative to Mitotane.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 6 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Best pet pharmacy on the internet! I won't buy my pet meds any place else. The time and caring the associates give you is amazing. I have the utmost confidence in ordering from PetCareRX. Shipping is very fast, and their methods of communication are spot on! I am so glad I found the best place for all my animals prescription needs! 07/03/2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Works wonders. I bought this product for my dog when she was diagnosed about 6 years ago. When I first bought this I went to a regular pharmacy and was charged $500 was this medication because they told me not many people were on it and I had to purchase the whole bottle of 100 tablets. Now I guess it's more out there and cheaper to buy. Great deal.... 01/07/2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thank you It was VERY helpful to read how well other dogs have done on this med! My 13 yo dog was recently diagnosed with Cushings Disease and will have to start this med as well. Thanks for the hope! 04/16/2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lusodren works My dog has recovered from cancer twice and she now has has Cushings disease for 3 years. She gets 1/2 of a 500mg pill 2x per week and weighs 35 lbs. She needs a pepcid ac pill when she takes the lysodren and is doing fine at 13 years old!!! 04/24/2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lysodren works!! My dog was diagnosed with Cushings Disease 4 years ago. Casey is on Lysodren, carefully monitored by our Veterinarian, and is doing beautifully! She has had no side effects and is a happy, healthy 13 year old Lab. 03/19/2008
Rated 5 out of 5 by It's a miracle Sadie was diagnosed with Cushings. My vet advised against starting treatment (Lysodren) until she deteriorated greatly saying the treatment could be worse than the disease. However, she lacked energy, drank all the time,therefore had accidents, was starving,etc. . She was losing her hair (her tail was almost bald & she's a poodle!)Once she went on Lysodren, she's was like a new dog. Active, her appetite & thirst are under control. Even more amazing is that she grew back a lush thick coat which is dark red like it was when she was a puppy! It improved her quality of life tremendously! *This is a prescription item. 01/17/2005
