Neulastim Cancer injection

Product Description

Pegfilgrastim, sometimes referred to as Neulastim Cancer Injection, is a drug used in cancer treatment to lower the risk of febrile neutropenia. The condition known as febrile neutropenia, which can be life-threatening due to an elevated risk of infections, is characterised by a low white blood cell count (neutropenia) and a fever in cancer patients. The group of medications known as granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSFs) includes Neulastim Cancer Injection. It functions by promoting the development and production of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell in charge of battling infections. Neulastim Cancer lowers the risk of infection-related side effects when treating cancer by boosting neutrophil counts and preventing severe neutropenia. Usually, one injection is given every cycle of treatment.
