Background Systemic hypertension (SH) is common in dogs and humans with hypercortisolism and can persist after treatment. Objectives To evaluate changes in prevalence of SH and systolic blood pressure (SBP) in dogs with pituitary‐dependent hyperadrenocorticism (PDH) during the first year of trilosta...

Summary:Background Systemic hypertension (SH) is common in dogs and humans with hypercortisolism and can persist after treatment. Objectives To evaluate changes in prevalence of SH and systolic blood pressure (SBP) in dogs with pituitary‐dependent hyperadrenocorticism (PDH) during the first year of trilostane treatment, its relationship with disease control and selected laboratory variables, and their response to antihypertensive treatment. Animals Fifty‐one dogs with PDH treated with trilostane Q12h. Methods Prospective case series study. Dogs were evaluated at diagnosis (T0) and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months (T12). Dogs were classified as nonhypertensive (SBP
