Once a total cumulative dose of 20 mg is reached, therapy should be discontinued for a few months before restarting, to reduce the risk of side effects.In dogs with prostate cancer, doses of up to 1 mg/animal/day have been used for up to 25 weeks in one study, without remission being achieved, but without significant progression of the disease.For treating prostatic hyperplasia in dogs, a typical dose is 0.2 to 1 mg total for five days
