Cats are considered more resistant to glucocorticoid side effects than dogs. Methylprednisolone may be more active and clinically effective in cats than dogs.

Comment for Vetacortyl –5ml:

In the treatment of certain chronic inflammatory and pruritic conditions in cats, eg, milliary eczema, methylprednisolone acetate may be more appropriate than progestogens.

With long term treatment, progestogens may be diabetogenic and may induce other potential adverse effects in cats.
