Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is not likely the result of the dewormer. Puppies depending on their age can sleep quite a bit and not be very playful if for example less than 2 months of age. If your pup is older and you think may be sick due to other symptoms, it would be best to have him evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Otherwise, your pup may be fine. Best of luck!
