This is a very common side effect of Trifexis, if you know for sure that he didn't throw up for the first 2 hours after you gave it to him, then you do not have to treat again. the side effect will last up to 24 hours. next time try to give it a quarter tablet at a time every 15 minutes with food, this can prevent this side effect. alternatively you can switch to a different product.
