My dog vomited yellow and i think he is depressed. Can i do something to help him? Yesterday we bring him to veterinarian clinic and doctor gave him a tablet for ticks & fleas. Is that normal behavior?

It could be the Tablet (is it Bravecto by any chance?) i have seen it happening before. withhold food for 12 hours then offer him boiled boneless chicken and rice every 6 hours in small portions. if he is eating and not vomiting, continue with this diet for 2 days. After 2 days, you can put him back gradually on his normal food. If he continues vomiting or is not eating, take him to the vet to get treatment.
