Introduction to Nufil Sf 300mcg Injection

This medication is used to treat chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (a condition caused by abnormally low levels of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell), fever and infections. Chemotherapy often leads to a drop in white blood cell counts, making patients susceptible to infections. This drug mainly helps to mitigate this risk by stimulating the production of white blood cells, reducing the chances of infection and treatment interruptions.

If your WBC decreases, your body may not have enough cells to combat bacteria, putting you at risk of infection. Inform your physician if you have or had liver disease, kidney problems, sickle cell anemia or bone disease. Common side effects include fever, pain, rash, cough, shortness of breath, and nosebleeds.
