Hello. Yes, as long as the clinical signs of Cushing's are not hindering you or your pets' life. Vetoryl will control most of the symptoms associated with Cushing's by decreasing the influence of cortisol on the body, so as long as your pet seems happy & comfortable, the choice to use this medication is yours. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
