Abstract
In conclusion, trilostane treatment was effective in decreasing plasma progesterone concentration in bitches during the luteal phase, but the dose regimen used in this study produced less clear-cut inhibition of ovarian steroidogenesis than have other strategies to decrease plasma progesterone concentration. Further studies are warranted to determine whether trilostane can be used to terminate unwanted pregnancy in the bitch without inducing adrenocortical insufficiency.
