Re: Nuelasta v Granix
I have not heard of Granix and used Neulasta self administering at home the day following my chemo infusion. The cost was $3000/injection. It was mailed to me packed in ice and contained 2 syringes which covered a month's worth of chemo since it was infused every other week. I would not like to have to return daily for an injection. That really is not fun when you are not feeling well and seriously infringes upon your life. I am betting it is a $ issue.
