what do I do about my dog?

I took my dog to the vet to get her the pill for tape worm and she keeps throwing it up. When I gave it to her the first time she there up a lot and I know it sounds gross but I picked it out of her throw up and gave it to her a second and she threw it up . The vet said that she has to have the pill in order to get rid of the because the liquid medicine don’t work on tape worms. I need to get rid of these worms that she has but how is that ever gonna happend if she won’t keep the pill down. I tried giving it to her once with a treat like the vet said to and then once by there self. All opinions are appreciated. Thanks:)

What can I feed my cat to get him to gain weight?

My cat started to lose hair and weight about 3 months ago, and after a few vet visits, we finally found out that he had a tapeworm. We got rid of the tapeworm about a month ago and his coat is really improving, but he continues to be scrawny and bony. He’s always been kind of a light eater, but I’d really like him to gain some weight. He picks at his dry food, and he only eats a tiny bit of the wet food (different flavors) and canned tuna before he loses interest. What can I feed him that’s nutritious and yummy to him? By the way, he’s extremely active and playful, plus we’ve tested for feline leukemia etc so I think it rules out any other condition. It’s just the weight issue I’d like to address.
Also, Authority dry cat food (chicken), the Pet Smart brand is always available to him when he wants it.

My mom has two dogs a chiwawa (7monts old) and a Jack russel Mix, and she gave them this medicine today Adams No-Mo Tapeworm Expeller, they both got sick, shaky and the jack russel mix, passed out like and eyes rolled like a seizure, they are both coming around now, could my mom have overdosed them, she gave them the medicine for their weight it was capsules, what can she do to help them recover faster!

Foster dog arrived yesterday with worms. He was wormed on the 14th apparently but still had live ones in his poop yesterday. (They are tapeworms.) I bought some stuff from walmart. I am also fasting him, almost 24 hours so far. Should I give him the dewormer now or after I feed him?
Also, any tips on how to not spread it to my other animals? 2 cats and 2 dogs. They were dewormed about 2 weeks ago and I am trying to get them to poop in separate yards but they will be playing together and all in the house.
Just talked to the orgnaization and I think they are going to get me some Droncit :)
