| My baby threw up his worm medicine Im 18 so im not too familar with all this, but osiris had threw up his worm medication. It was yesterday when i noticed a small tiny white worm poking out his poo so i went to the vet today and they told me it was a tapeworm, anyhow i got this pill that takes care of all worms....and he threw it up about an hour later with maybe some dead worms idk?....so i have one more pill and im not sure if i should go ahead and give it to him since he threw up the pill i gave him about 4 hours ago. Another question is could i possible get the worm too? Please help me it will be appreciated! |

The 3 Musketeers Donating Member | You should call your vet. I don't think that you have anything to worry about catching them yourself.

| Call the vet and see if they want you to redose. My guess is yes. You can catch tapeworms if you swallow a flea.

| Your vet would be able to give you a definate answer.. my guess is you will have to second dose. Youll still see dead worms after giving the medication i think because the body has to get rid of them.
