By your description, it could be tapeworm. You should wait 2-3 weeks before repeating the treatment. It is common to see a purge of dead or dying parasites after a deworming. Since tapeworm is spread by fleas, you should treat all pets in the house as well as the house for fleas for at least 3 consecutive months, preferably year round.
