Neulasta/neupogen
Hi everyone
I wonder if you can tell me if neulasta or neupogen are given routinely in the States as a preventative measure
during chemotherapy?
I am due to start docetaxol which my oncologist has told me killed two of her patients who developed neutropenia!!I also had neutropenia when I had AC and was quite poorly so am hoping and praying to avoid it this time round.
I have heard it is expensive and wondered if this might be a reason why it's not routinely given in the UK.
Grateful for any info
Ellie
