Anipryl 5 mg (30 Tablets

Anipryl also known as L-deprenyl, is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOi) used in dogs for the treatment of Cushing’s disease and canine cognitive dysfunction. It is not known specifically how Anipryl works. However, it is believed that Anipryl prevents the breakdown of dopamine.

Benefits

• First and only FDA-approved drug used to control clinical signs associated with Canine Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome
• First and only product approved to control uncomplicated PDH (pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism) Cushing’s disease

How it works

Anipryl increases the concentration of a nervous system messenger chemical called dopamine. Higher levels of dopamine improve many cognitive processes. Treating Cushing’s Disease has traditionally been centered on suppressing the adrenal gland’s production and release of cortisone. However, this approach has a high potential for side effects. Selegiline has allowed for a new approach by suppressing the pituitary gland directly.
