Trilostane, sold under the brand name Vetoryl among others, is a medication which has been used in the treatment of Cushing's syndrome, Conn's syndrome, and postmenopausal breast cancer in humans.[6][7][8][9][1] It was withdrawn for use in humans in the United States in the 1990s[10] but was subsequently approved for use in veterinary medicine in the 2000s to treat Cushing's syndrome in dogs.[11] It is taken by mouth.[1]
