OTC meds for Cushing's treatment

[GeneralJAR]

We were told by our vet to use melatonin and lignans for our 5 yr old hound recently diagnosed with atypical Cushings. Anyone else using this method?

Hi and welcome,

My Squirt started out as Atypical and we used the combination of melatonin and lignans with success in controlling her intermediates. It takes around 4 months to see improvements so be patient.

Would you mind filling us in on your baby? How the vet came to test for Cushing's in the first place? What signs you are seeing? And please post the actual test results here. That will help us a great deal in helping you and your baby.

Hugs,
Leslie and the gang
