How long after getting his distemper vaccine should I wait to give a tapeworm dewormer? Or does it matter? He’s just very small and don’t want to over work his body.

HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I think it is fine to give the tape worm dewormer 2-3 days after the distemper vaccine. That way if Oliver has any vomiting. diarrhea or change in appetite we know what did it-the vaccine or the dewormer. I hope this help!
