Buddy, The Mighty Lizard Hunter - Suspected Pituitary Macro Tumor

No, Trilostane needs to begin given in the morning only. That is part of the Trilostane/prednisone combo treatment. The cortisol is supposed to be able to rise in the evening. That helps slow down the tumor somewhat, While still controlling the Cushing's symptoms during the day.

I didn't know as we never persued that avenue. I am sorry I can't be of more help x

It is working during the day. He actually does quite well. It is bedtime when the problem occurs. When he starts to cry and moan, he's in pain.
Kathy

The doctor did say it would take three or four days To regulate the dose back where it was to eliminate the symptoms, Before all of this started. Then I'm supposed to put him on a maintenance dose. I haven't given it long enough to work yet, If it's going to work. It did work before.
Kathy

Helpless is the word, I know that's how it used to make me feel.

You are doing your very best Kathy

Tight hug

Mel

Kathy

Kathy

Hi Kathy, Hi Mel!!

I am finally home from giving the speech, it went pretty good. I got a nice pressie of 3 different olive oils and 2 packs of tasty olives so that was kind of them! Let me get a cuppa and i shall be back, sorry Buddy is uncomfortable again Kathy, I would give him as much Tramadol as he is allowed to see if he settles. I know you don't like doing that, but he might need more till that Prednisone kicks back in. Back in a tic
