Neupogen/Neulasta

Hi Cheri,
Thank you for the kind words !

I have not read anything about the longest or largest dose of Neupogen recommended - I think you should take as much as you need to make your neutrophils high enough.

If they are 1.5 you should be safe. Many members of this forum manage well with vey low neutrophils.

The difference between Neupogen and Neulasta is that Neulasta is a long-acting version of Neupogen. This means that you don't have to take Neulasta so often but it is more difficult to monitor. As far as I understand none of these drugs increase blast cells.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
