One character is an alcoholic but has not had a drink for many years (some flashbacks show before he went to rehab and it is frequently discussed). Starting in mid season 3 a character is dealing with an addiction to Vicodin.

Not really, but the dog adopted by the character was a stray, so it was neglected or possibly thrown out because it is an older dog.

Spoiler: Delilah gags and rushes to the bathroom in season 1 episode 6. This is after she gets of the phone with the bank after the loan is denied. Nothing is seen, but the gagging may be triggering.
Season 1 episode 9 - flashback to Gary receiving chemo. After the nurse turns on the music, Gary gets a weird look and grabs a bucket. On screen, but no visual of the process. There is some on his lips afterwards. Audio. Should have time to mute.
Season 1 episode 10 - Gary and Maggie are in the car arguing after the Christmas party at Delilah's. Maggie vomits after Gary admits he loves her. It is audio and visual projectile resulting from chemo. Muting and looking away for about 10 seconds should do it. Dialogue consists of Maggie confirming that she is doing chemo.
Season 4 episode 19 - after Maggie's mom leaves the apartment, Gary gets a weird look on his face and runs off screen. He vomits loudly, but no visual. He vomits again after cutting to them in the bathroom. It's not immediate, but there is audible everything. Unsure of visual. After Maggie's procedure in this same episode, Gary is on the phone with her and vomits again. Gagging only. No audio or visual.
Season 5 episode 2 - Maggie deals with significant nausea with her pregnancy. About 5 and a half minutes in. Gary walks in after Maggie was sick on the floor. No audio, visual happens after Gary says he will clean it and grabs the paper towels. Their dog cleans it up. no visual after. Maggie gags very mildly when she goes to kiss Gary goodbye. No vomit. Maggie gags and runs out of the session due to discussing peanuts. You see her over the toilet but no visual and no audio.
