About Peg Filtero 6 Mg Injection

Peg Filtero 6 mg Injection contains Pegfilgrastim 6 mg, a long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). It is used to reduce the risk of infections in patients receiving chemotherapy that can lower white blood cell levels. Pegfilgrastim stimulates the bone marrow to produce more neutrophils, a type of white blood cell that plays an important role in fighting infections. It should be administered under medical supervision.
