My dog threw up his phenobarbital. Should I give him another dose?

Question

My dog threw up 15 minutes after his dose of phenobarbital. Should I give it to him again? Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Male | neutered | 3 years and 5 months old | 7 lbs

I'm wondering if you saw the pill is his vomit. If you did, wait an hour, feed Bruiser some food, and then redose him. If you did not see the pill in his vomit, it may still be in his stomach, and I would not give him another dose. Follow the regular dosing schedule.
