It's very likely to be something very serious such as lung cancer or advanced heartworm disease, she will need to have an xray done urgently in order to try and diagnose the condition first., you need to take her to the vet the first chance you have.

Poor girl. There are a lot of possibilities her for the cause of her respiratory issues, vomiting, panting and increased thirst. Naughty needs to have some tests done to determine the underlying cause which could be: congestive heart failure, heartworm disease, pneumonia, primary lung disease, or even masses in the chest are possible considering her age. If the medication that your vet gave did not improve her condition, which it definitely sounds like is the case, then Naughty needs to be re-checked and have the proper testing done to properly diagnose her condition so that it is specifically treated for. A clear yellow vomit is most likely bile and is not a blood clot as you indicated. Bile is vomited up when a pet has nothing else left on their stomach, and can indicate internal organ malfunction such as kidney disease. A pet normally does vomit as a result of medication unless the they are hypersensitive to the medication. This can be seen more commonly with antibiotics given to pets. However, you should rule out other more plausible causes for the vomiting, especially if the vomiting occurred before Naughty was given the meds or if she was already quite ill to begin with. Pomerians in older age are at high risk for heart disease (mitral valve disease), tracheal collapse, and kidney problems, so it is important to get her properly tested (bloodwork + radiographs) to rule out these very likely causes for her illness.
