My dog ate carprofen. Vomiting induced. What's next for his care?

Question

Hi. My dad's dog is about 60 pounds. Him and the other dogs got into some his carprofen. He wasn't acting well but my dad's vet suggested to induce vomiting. It seems to be helping him since he is eating and drinking and moving around now. Is there anything I could suggest to help even more? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | neutered | 65 lbs

No, inducing vomiting is the most important thing to do in such a condition but it is also recommend to take him to the vet so he can get charcoal and fluid therapy in case he did not throw up all the medications.
