Generic PPID Medication Available Soon! – Skillman Veterinary Services, Indianapolis, Indiana

Huge news for horses diagnosed with Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction! A new FDA-approved generic option for managing PPID (Cushing’s Disease) will be available at our clinic!

Zygolide® is a peppermint-flavored, first-to-market generic pergolide designed for easier dosing with 360-degree scoring for accurate dose adjustments. As a generic medication, it offers a much more cost-effective option for horses requiring long-term PPID treatment.

We are already taking orders, and Zygolide® will be available by the end of January. Due to expected high demand, we anticipate this medication will be very popular and may not always be readily available on our shelves – we recommend ordering early to avoid delays!
