My dog is throwing up and lethargic after recent shots and Trifexis.

If there are no other symptoms and she is still eating and drinking normally you can probably wait until Monday to have her examined. I doubt the recent vaccines and Trifexis are related. If she vomits or has diarrhea, if she isn’t eating or if she is so lethargic you can’t rouse her you should see an emergency vet.

Poor Ember! Vomiting and lethargy are both common side effects of Trifexis, and do not usually indicate any kind of serious problem. But, you could certainly opt to use a different flea and heartworm medication for her in the future to avoid this issue. For tonight, I would withhold food and leave her alone to rest since she doesn't feel well. If she's still acting noticeably lethargic tomorrow, or if she develops any other symptoms, then I would call your veterinarian or take her in for a check-up to make sure nothing else is wrong.

This is a very common side effect of Trifexis, if you know for sure that he didn't throw up for the first 2 hours after you gave it to him, then you do not have to treat again. the side effect will last up to 24 hours. next time try to give it a quarter tablet at a time every 15 minutes with food, this can prevent this side effect. alternatively you can switch to a different product.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Fiona. She is unlikely vomiting from the Trifexis if she hasn't in the past. That is a small dose change for her. There are numerous causes of vomiting such as dietary indiscretion, an infection, stress or something more serious such as eating a foreign object. If she still refuses to eat or cannot keep food or water down, then she will need to see a veterinarian today. Being such a small breed dog, it is easy for her to become dehydrated. If she seems to be feeling better, give her small frequent amounts of water and food throughout the day today. I hope this information helps!

No, this isn't typical. Keep a close eye on her, and take her back into the vet in the morning if the symptoms persist. If she starts vomiting, has diarrhea, starts having trouble breathing, gets a rash or hives, or her face starts swelling, bring her into an ER vet immediately. Best of luck.

Toxic reactions of the main ingredient in Trifexis in dogs starts at 400mg/kg. Assuming duke had 6 tablets of 60-120lbs he had a little under 10,000 mg, for his weight toxic dose starts at 12,000 mg, so he should be safe, but if you start seeing worse symptoms or if he isn't better by tomorrow morning- take him to the vet in order to get it checked.

Hello. It is not unusual for a puppy to feel a little unwell after receiving vaccinations, but these reactions rarely require treatment. Most symptoms will pass in 12-24 hours. If Baxter is otherwise feeling OK, or sleeping quietly, then leave him be. But if the vomiting is intractable, or he develops any diarrhea, quits eating & becomes significantly lethargic please see your veterinarian as soon as possible.
