Cushing’s syndrome (CS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in dogs, with systemic signs caused by excessive corticosteroid (mainly cortisol) secretion from the adrenal glands. Drugs commonly used in veterinary medicine, drugs whose usefulness has been reported in case reports, and drugs used in human medicine are also introduced.
