Common Questions and Answers about Filgrastim soln

neupogen

493068 tn?1224765315 my stats seem to go up and down so I only have to take it now every 2 wks. It is unknown whether filgrastim (Neupogen) increases or decreasses an individual's risk of developing cancer. Based on limited long-term data from healthy people ( if a person is healthy why would they need neupogen in the first place ) who have received filgrastim, no long-term risks have been found so far. good luck to you....hope this helped!
Avatar m tn Do you mean filgrastim? And are you saying Dengue fever? It would be a surprising though perhaps not impossible use of filgrastim. Dengue is usually treated by pain managers and sometimes hospitalization and a blood transfusion. Anyway, if you have a legitimate prescription from a doctor, you should be able to fill it in the United States.
Avatar f tn For this reason, patients are prescribed antibiotics and even receive injections to increase white blood counts (such as filgrastim or lenograstim). If this 0.4 value really pertains to your white counts, then I believe this is really low and what you are experiencing is a condition called 'febrile neutropenia'. I would suggest you ask your doctor about filgrastim or lenograstim injections aside from the Levaquin. Regards.

Avatar n tn Filgrastim is also prescribed as pegfilgrastim (called Neulasta). My doctor used the 500 neutrophill count as a cut-off, so every time I got down around 500 I used Neulasta. The interferon drops neutrophils and platelets. Some people can do okay with low neutrophils but just as many end up with kidney and sinus infections, etc., that make you even more miserable.

Avatar m tn Doctors unable to give any explanation for such wide variations on a dose to dose basis. Till date, I have also taken 5 doses of Filgrastim - the WBC Stimulator. Can you pleae advice possible reasons for such wide fluctuations.
Avatar f tn also with antibiotics he should prescribe strong pain killers and chymotrypsin for early recovery along with sitz bath and povidone iodine soln to clean the ana area.
Avatar f tn It was he!l before that. I also use clobetesol soln. and fluocinonide ointment (prescription steroid topicals) as needed. I hope you get some relief soon.
Avatar m tn Neulasta® (pegfilgrastim) or NEUPOGEN® (Filgrastim) may reduce your chance of getting an infection, but it does not prevent all infections. An infection can happen anytime your neutrophil counts are low. Look for signs of infection, such as fever, chills, rash, sore throat, diarrhea, or redness, swelling, or pain around a cut or sore. If you have any of these signs, contact your health care professional immediately. http://www.neulasta.com/starting-chemo-with-neulasta/about-neulasta-neupogen.
Avatar m tn Yes. As you already mentioned, you didn't masturbate for 4 days and see a stronger erect penis. So keep it up... Every man is different. Some men can masturbate all the time and still have healthy looking penis and some men should only do it once a day. You need to study your body and determine how often you should masturbate.

Avatar m tn i have semen leakage without sex since last year plz tell me soln or medicines
Avatar n tn Hi, With modern medical advances, especially effective anti-emetics, and growth factors (filgrastim), chemotherapy has become safer and more tolerable over the last decade or so. Hair loss will be your major side effect, and some intermittent illnesses may also be expected during the course of chemotherapy. But your overall long-term benefit will be much more than these temporary effects. All the Best!
476246 tn?1418870914 , the primary ‘rescue’ meds are (generic) epoetin alpha (brand names Epogen, Procrit, Aransp), and filgrastim (generic) (brand name Neupogen). We do have a platelet booster here that has been approved for cancer treatment; it is generically known as oprelvekin (brand name Neumega), but its use has not been FDA approved for HCV treatment to my knowledge; it tends to worsen hemolytic anemia, although we have had a few patients in forum that have tried it.
Avatar m tn I had that also in the beginning. I used a moisturizing eye drop. I used the coconut oil and saline soln for my sinuses as they dried also out.
Avatar m tn You can discuss ‘Neupogen (filgrastim) with the doc; this is a GCSF drug that stimulates bone marrow production of white cells. It is generally initiated when absolute neutrofils reach .500 or that vicinity; some docs allow closer to .350, depending on occupation and other matters.
Avatar n tn ve stopped using the shampoo and conditioner.Is there no soln.?wat sud I do? I dont want to use this medication rest of my life.I'm totally confused and worried.please help.Show me some direction.
Avatar m tn Before3 days I went to a derma and he looked at it and gave me prednisolone 5 mg 2 tablets 3 times a day, and potassium permanganate 5ml soln. to be diluted in 1000ML water and soak it on scrotum 2 times a day. But since I have started taking these medications my rash has spread with redness and ooziness, and also feel very sharp pain to touch. Is this normal ? Or should I stop taking medication? What else can I do. The derma is expensive here...
2022648 tn?1328711666 Hello, this is my first time on this forum. I just wanted to see if anyone is having or has had some of the same problems. Five weeks ago I started a 48 week treatment for hep b with 180 mg Pegasys. The nurse gave me my first injection in my arm which hurt for two weeks. Since then, I've alternated the injection sites. Twice in my thighs and twice in my belly. I have these big, round, red rashes with bruises in the middle. They just seem to be getting worse.
302488 tn?1337551241 The only thing that has kept me from scratching myself raw is the Hydroxyzine 50 mg every 6 hours, the fluocinonide ointment, and the clobetesol soln. (from my dermatologist). If the rash is bad, the over the counter meds will not help. Hopefully it will go away after the Incivek is finished, but it could be from the other drugs and so it may not.
