Neulasta is used to treat neutropenia, a lack of certain white blood cells caused by receiving cancer chemotherapy. Neulasta is used in people with cancers other than bone marrow cancer.
Cautions:
You should not use Neulasta if you are allergic to pegfilgrastim, filgrastim (Neupogen), or to other medicines made with the E. coli bacteria.
Before using Neulasta, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have sickle cell disorder. You may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use Neulasta.
